A sweet and simple trap.......we really thought this year was going to be the year we caught the little bugger! We really thought that there was no way possible for him to get away! We lured him into the box with a can of 7-up and a green coin......and the plan was that the box would fall on top of him the minute he tried to get inside -- pretty clever idea that Audriana had to rig it with some Tinker Toys! Well, we went to bed after we set the trap.....we were just sure we would wake up to a caught Leprechaun. The girls woke up early (of course, ugh!) and were dissappointed yet again this year....that tricky Leprechaun escaped again! And this is how we found the box.......
He somehow got inside the box, took the green coin, and left the girls a box of Lucky Charms! He then set up the Tinker Toys again and wrote a cute little note to the girls with green frosting. He also left 4 leaf clovers made out of green frosting in their bathroom sink, on the kitchen counter, on the stove, in the kitchen sink and on top of the peanut butter lid!
The girls knew that I was not happy about the Leprechaun leaving us sugar cereal....which made it even more special for them!
He left these little 4 leaf clovers all over -- what a mess I had to clean up!
When we opened up the fridge, we discovered that he also turned our milk green! Yuck! But, he was also nice enough to leave the girls 2 lime yogurts to go with their Lucky Charms breakfast!
He may be a tricky Leprechaun, but he pretty nice, too!
