It has now become an annual (and by that I mean this is our 2nd time) tradition for Jocelyn and I to go up and see the St. Patty's Day parade. I used to take my 3rd grade class to the parade every year so knew the in's and outs (aka, where to stand so you are not surrounded by a bunch of inebriated people) and always found it to be very fun & educational. As J gets older we can talk about the different military branches, the pros and cons of being a Tuba player, how short skirts can't possibly keep those dancers warm, and so much more!
Irish eyes were smiling down on us, because the day was gorgeous! 60 degrees and bright sunny skies. We stood on 72nd and the kids were entertained for a lot longer then I ever thought, a good 45-60 minutes.
