Happy St Patrick's Day!

This past weekend, Jeremy took Kenzie on a daddy/daughter date to Dublin's St. Patrick's day parade. Actually, it was a Daddy-Double date.  Our good friend Greg and his son, Joshua joined them and enjoyed their own father/son day. They started off the morning going to the Dublin Lion's Club Pancake and Sausage Breakfast, and once they stuffed themselves full of breakfast, they grabbed some front row seats to the parade.  The kids LOVED the floats, meeting some of the parade characters, spending time with each other and their daddy's, and of course the candy!  Jeremy cherished this 1-on-1 time with Mackenzie, as did she.  To say she was beaming when they returned home is the understatement of the year!

We started the official morning of St. Patty's day off with our green outfits, of course.  Mackenzie got a good laugh out of waking Daddy up with a pinch, b/c his pj's were not green.  After getting ready, we headed with Nana to Great-Grandma Monty's to spend the morning with her.  We enjoyed some playtime at her retirement village before heading out for brunch.  We had such a great visit, and I know it was the highlight of Monty's week, and definitely ours!  I am so grateful that my children are able to know their great-grandmother, and spend this precious time with her! From there we headed home to put Caleb down for a nap, and Kenz and I enjoyed the beautiful weather outside.  Some of our old neighbor's headed over for an afternoon playdate shortly thereafter, and left before dinner. The kids have all really missed each other, and I so enjoyed catching up with my dear friend, Krista.  It was a fabolous day, surrounded by family and friends!
