Happy St. Patrick's Day

Steven and I dancing with glow sticks in
our kitchen St. Patrick's Day party

I love this photo from years ago of me and Steven dancing in the kitchen with glow sticks we bought for the St. Patrick's Day festivities we have whenever possible with our family.

Today we'll have a dinner with our daughter-in-law Emily, and our son Sam.  That will be fun. I love how this photo is like abstract art.  So cool. Steven and I just decorated, and the kitchen looks very festive.

I hope if you celebrated St. Patrick's Day you had a great time. Here's a quote from a former blog.

"No I am not Irish, but way back some of my ancestors
fled France for Ireland, and then Ireland for Canada.
So in fact I'm more French than Irish.

One year when my children were small we -- a very
celebratory family -- bought them green toys and hula
hoops, and green candy and had green ginger ale, and
green champagne for the adults, and a tradition was
born. " So Happy St. Patrick' Day.

Have a loving your life day.

Happy Belated St. Patrick's Day. It does feel like a celebration of spring. We have no Irish ancestry in our house,
but I love the joyous quality of the celebrations.
