A Leprechaun Trap????

when madeline was in 1st grade, she came home with an assignment to make a leprechaun trap, a what? So she took a lot of time and made it just right to catch the crazy guy, mr l.

well, fast forward 3 years later and guess what we made on st pat's eve, another trap. see the crazy clay and rocks so that mr l can rock climb and get his pot of gold (make sure you say it with an irish accent, ok).

this is part of jacob's trap. i think it might scare the poor, little fella and he would run away with his head on so that the shark doesn't rip it off. forget the gold, i want to keep my head!
good morning st pat's day... madeline woke up at 1:30 AM to tell me no mr L but some mighty fine candy... okay good night!

this is jacob's frown, so sad that there was no mr l in the trap... i mean really, really sad. what can you do, mr l is sooooo fast.

we have another year to improve our traps!

Such a cute idea... they should work for the CIA! Stellar trap setting skills are always a plus :)
