No we are not Irish but we thought it would be fun ( OK I thought!! and Maw Maw agreed) to have a themed family dinner night - every Sunday is family dinner with Jeremy's fam so this Sunday Maw-Maw cooked an Irish Stew and cabbage and apples. We had Irish soda bread and banana-nut cupcakes with green sprinkles....... Everybody wore green ( again- we had the parade on Saturday) so today we are St. Patricks day out!! Had sooo much fun and we aren't even Irish, but still fun to celebrate and make new traditions. Here is a poem Kayla told us
before dinner: An Old Irish Blessing
May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
And the rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of
His hand.
Have a great day- love you all!!
** oh yeah and I am not wearing my green shirt because CAROLINA sooo deserves to be worn on a day like yesterday ( and everyday for that fact!! lol) Go heels!!, but I did wear my beads!! :)
