Seeing Green

This weekend we did a little celebrating. ..ok a lot of celebrating!  It was Irish fest in Lawler so we made plans for a family weekend of fun! It started Friday night with a hot and sweaty 5k. I'm more of a morning runner but this one was ok too finishing in 22:30 and taking first in my age group. We finished the day with pizza and fireworks!

Saturday morning we were up and at 'em pretty early to get our float finalized and ready for judging.  We did an Irish pub theme and in remembrance of those family members no longer with us.  We had family tshirts made too! We won a trophy for best family walking unit! Yeah! The kids enjoyed the bouncy houses before heading back to my parents for some food and fun!  We celebrated my grandmother's 86 birthday as well!  She's a great lady!

Our festivities carried well into the night with lots of laughter and memories! I'm so grateful to have such great family! We are already looking forward to next year's event!
