We really love celebrating St. Patrick's Day around here. Such a fun, easy holiday. We decorate a little, reminisce about our Dublin days, dress the part, sing our favorite songs, and anticipate a visit from those naughty leprechauns.
The kids had a birthday party to attend during the day and wore their green. Several ladies asked if we are Irish. Silly question...don't they know?? Everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day!
D and friends. Silly girls!
C and his buddy, Adi, celebrated by sprinting to to our picnic rugs and leaping into our laps. Sweet, joyful boys.
THEN! Wednesday night was spent celebrating my good friend Connie's 40 3/4 birthday. Dinner and dancing out on the town is the best!!

Armed and dangerous!
That evening the adults celebrated our friend Laura's birthday.
Green pasta, perfect Laura!
And for me, more beef than I bargained for!
After dinner, a St Paddy's Day party awaited, so adorned with shamrocks, we all joined the McDermott's and friends poolside, and had a ball. Such fun!!
C has been asking all week for me to sing "the song with the girl and she died." Molly Malone. Morbid, but charming and entertaining all at the same time!
We also enjoyed celebrating ISB's birthday on Sunday with a "Concert in the Park." A beautiful evening, great music, happy family.
Tuesday was a fun, girly High Tea at the fancy Mandarin Oriental Hotel to celebrate my friend Brittany's birthday. Loved all the goodies and fun conversation! Looks yum, right!?
Finally, to wrap up an unusally social week, a Girl's Night Out in BKK. It wasn't a birthday, but having such awesome friends is reason enough to celebrate! Wish I had a photo of the whole group. Lots of laughs and enjoying these girls while I have them! MWAH!!!
