Tim nor I are Irish but growing up in NY in a Catholic family I always celebrated St. Patrick's Day. With my sister living in Boston probably one of the largest Irish populations we had more than one excuse to wear green yesterday.
Jen had bought Raya a cute I "shamrock" Boston onesie back in August and it was baggy then, not so much now. It's bittersweet watching her grow. I was able to stuff her into the onesie for a couple of hours to stop by Tim's baseball game. She also sent Raya an adorable shamrock headband, we are so lucky Raya leaves them on her head! ;)
After lunch it was time to put her shamrock party dress on to stop by a bridal show at The Hotel Del (which we got a flat tire on the way to- luck wasn't really on our side) then headed to Grandma Altbaum's for little St. Patrick's day festivities. Due to the flat tire we were a little late but she had a scavenger hunt for the kids with a little bag that had a leprechaun hat, beads, rubber duckies-very cute! Raya played and chewed on her duckies all night while also showing off her walking skills and stopping for just a few minutes to have a little dinner.
What a fun day of festivities, who said it wasn't fun being green?!
