St. Patrick's Day Parade 2011

It was a great day for a parde. We were so sad to miss the 2010 parade but it was pouring and we had a brand new baby. Neither of those were true this year.

We spent some time waiting for the parade.

St Patrick's Day Parade

It was raining hard at times and this year we had a six week old so we did not make it to the parade. However, we had a great time at the pancake breakfast with all four of our little leprachuns.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

Hope you are wearing green Lauren might get you otherwise.

Bob walked down to the basement today to find Lauren sitting on Shannon. Poor Shannon was squealing as hard as she could!

Bob told Lauren to get off of her sister.

Lauren looked at Bob and said "But Daddy, she no wearing green I have to punch her"

Guess she's a little mix up, huh? The best part was that Shannon hadn't even had a chance to get dressed. It was only 7:30.

Our Early St. Patrick's Day

The town we live in had a St. Patrick's Day parade today. We decided to make a day of it.

We went at 8:30 so we could get some good seats. We tossed our blankets and our wagon right outside of Ellie's preschool. We went to the Pancake breakfast. The pancakes were good. It appeared we got there at the right time as the line got very long as soon as we sat down.



They were seeling raffle tickets and I made Bob buy some. Wouldn't you know the next two prizes go to him? We won a $140 gift card to the wine cellar and a medium pizza to a local pizza shop.

After, we left we went to the library for storytelling. It was good until the welcoming committee (aka Shannon) started entertaining everyone. She was cute but people were not there to see her.

We went back and waited for the parade and listened to a band, the Hoolingans. They were quite entertaining.





It was fun waiting for the parade




Some of the parade. It was a little cold. We asked Lauren and Ellie what they liked best they both said "The candy". What's a parade without candy!





Afterwards, they had some crafts, some bounce houses and some food at a shopping center. We watched Irish dancing. The girls were mesmerized and Ellie tried some while she watched. At the end of the day, Shannon was done.
