A Wee Bit Irish

Any reason to celebrate, right? That should be my mantra. I've been lovin' all things green this year, so what could be better than a city full of celebrators adorning green and getting sloshed before noon? (The other celebrators, not us! Sheesh.)
Abbey had the parade thing down. She knew to relax during the marching bands.




















Then wave and flash a smile for the people distributing the goods.




















And that's how we ended up with over a dozen bead necklaces and a loot of tootsie rolls.




















The Party Crew
Happy St Patrick's Day!

Happy Patty's to you too!
I need to take fashion tips from Abbey, the girl is stylin'. I forgot to send Keion to school with green on, I hope he doesn't get pinched too much! By the way Ashley, you are looking fab too. If you wouldn't have posted that pic of your belly I wouldn't believe that you are pregnant =)

that looks like so much fun...and warm. I thought for a second you had written,"Then a wave and a flash for the people distributing the goods." No WONDER she got so many necklaces...but this isn't Mardi Gras! Put your shirt down, Abbey!

Looks like you and especially Abbey, that cutie, had fun at the parade :) I always wanted to go to that parade. Do they really make the river green or is that just a rumor?

If the river was green I totally missed it. It is a great parade though, wish you were closer to enjoy it with us! Plus they do a 'Leprechaun Village' with tons of those blow up slides and bouncing houses for free.
