Celebrating the Irish!

We left the house by boat last Friday (a flood post is coming soon!), parked by the street, got in the truck and headed for Texas to celebrate at the St. Patrick's Day parade in Dallas.

First stop was Auntie Skinners for lunch in Jefferson, TX...

Then on to McKinney for more food, drinks and laughs.

Saturday morning at 9:00am, we boarded the train bound for Greenville Ave. in Dallas.

We found a spot on the parade route and set up.

Lisa made sure we all had plenty of jello shots!

Cheers!!

 

Have a jello shot if you're Irish!

Dawn and Lisa

 

Happy birthday, Laura!

Time for the parade to start!

 

Loved the pipes! 

Grand Marshal Mark Cuban

So many great floats!

Lisa was handing out jello again!

This sign read "Staggering Irishmen"!

Salute to our military...

Doug always has a crazy get-up!


After the parade, it was back to the Frye's for a cookout.  First we broke the door and Kenneth and Curt did some home repairs!



Changing out the doorknob.

Kenneth getting some wood split for the fire.

It's OK, Curt...you just relax...

Curt kept the fire going well into the night.  Thank goodness because we had a cold snap, for sure!

At Dodie's celebrating our 34th anniversary Sunday morning!

 After lunch, we stopped at Cabela's and Sam's and headed home where, thankfully, we were able to drive through the water over the road.  It's still too high for my Pilot, but maybe Tuesday...


It was a wonderful anniversary weekend and I'm so thankful for my husband, family and friends!
