St. Pat’s

 

Evelyn came to my office sporting the new St. Patrick’s day dress that her grandma Rachel made for her.  She looked so stinking adorable!   Last year, I bought the girls new shirts for St. Patrick’s day and they didn’t get to wear them.  This year they proclaimed dressing up as being dorky.  I am glad at least there is one kid around who likes cheesy holidays!  

To celebrate, she and I ate at the bar!   We eat there often enough that the waitress brings our drinks upon us walking in.  We might have a teensy tiny problem!   Jim is having a colonoscopy tomorrow, so he is on a liquid diet today.  He was sad to miss out.  

Tonight the girls and I had religion Ed.  Since the patron Saint of the church we attend for class is St. Patrick, we learned some trivia about him.  I did not know that he was not from Ireland!  He was from Britain!  He was kidnapped and taken to Ireland!  Anyway I guess you learn something new sometimes.  

Today is also Lauren’s birthday.  First thing this morning, Cameron sent me a video of her opening his gift.  The gift was a can of baked beans.  I quickly responded that he better be producing her real gift, or I would drive out there and kick him.   A little bit later he texted me this, her real gift.  I love it. A girl who puts up with Cameron and loves cows is definitely a keeper!  

Colin and Cameron are both dating girls who we just love.  They are amazing, sweet girls.  We love our son in law as well.  I feel very blessed by the significant others our children have chosen so far.
