St. Patricks

The St. Patricks celebration starting with the annual SLC parade. This year was especially special because Davy was invited to be the Grand Marshall and he brought Leah along. I was at home large and pregnant so Dave took care of getting some great pictures.

Leah met some Irish Wolfhounds.

 
Davy and Leo the Lion in their kilts.
Isn't this the coolest picture. It is a really fun parade that goes down the center of the Gateway mall.

Love this picture of Leah on the float. She of course was in heaven.


This is what they rode on. Leah loved that the horse was decked out in green too.

 
Here is everybody dressed up in their Irish gear. Davy picked up these dresses for the girls the last time he went to Ireland. He is dressed like a leprechaun to go visit all the kids classes at school. Seriously he is the best sport. He even took the day off from work so he would have time to go to all of them. The kids woke up and Shamus our lephracan had made a mess in the house and died the kids hair green. That sneaky lephracan, he followed Dave here from Ireland and plays tricks on us every year.

Davy taught the kids a few Irish words and read them a story. They loved it.

I love it! What a fun way to celebrate such a great holiday. Davy really is a good sport. He even went to visit a class in which he had no children. Amalie thought he was awesome!
