Our Favorite Holiday Celebrated!

St. Patrick's Day has always been a fun holiday with my big Irish family.  It is my favorite.  We try to make it home when we can.  It is a day to celebrate, drink and have fun with my cousins, parents and siblings.  This was Ireland's first time back for it.  She loved it!!  Cohan loved the parade and Ireland loved all the extra attention.  After starting at 9:00 at my cousins house for a large Irish celebration, we headed downtown for the parade and to meet my dad and step-mom!  Ireland and Cohan were loving the attention from GramMo, Bucko and Grandma Chris!!  It was SUPER cold, but they were held and snuggled the whole time!!  Halfway through the parade, Ireland was fast asleep on GramMo's shoulder and Cohan was still getting candy.  After the parade, we headed to my uncle's Irish pub for food, bagpipers and family fun.

Here are a few of my favorites...

The tiara say IRISH PRINCESS.. she hated it.

 

The best part of this picture is the band aid on my dad's nose.  They were throwing beads and my dad got hit.  It was hilarious and someone around us only had a Disney band aid.  Awesome.   

 

 

 The next morning, our kids got to play at GramMo's house before we got back on the road.   

 

It was a perfect weekend!!!!
