Happy St. Patrick’s Day from St. Louis Dad

lucky you

This past weekend we went to the Cottleville St. Patrick’s Day parade. It was raining a little but nothing to keep us away from the fun. There were thousands of people there and it was so cool seeing everyone having a good time just enjoying the raining weather watching the parade.

I got some GoPro footage (thanks Michelle!) but I just have not had the time to cut anything together. This year we had a much better position for the kids to catch beads and other little trinkets, but if your curious here is a video from last year that I put together.

After the parade we marched back to Mamaw and Pawpaw’s house and ate a delicious lunch in celebration of my wife’s 30th birthday. My father-in-law is a great cook and his menu never disappoints. A few fajitas and a slice of birthday cake later it was about time to head home. Once home we set ourselves up to relax for a bit while the kids napped. I may have slipped in a few minutes of rest but nothing spectacular.

Happy Birthday to My Wife!

Today is my beautiful wife Destiny’s birthday. In honor of her special day the city of Cottleville, Missouri threw a parade in her honor. Thousands of people were there and they all were wearing Destiny’s favorite color green. The parade was great, there was horses, some floats, and a lot more. Check out the pictures below and also see the little video below of today’s festivities set to the tune of Aquadrop & The Golden Toyz.
