St. Paddy's Day

Just a little blurb I posted on FB:

Happy St. Paddy's! So I had the "perfect" celebration planned for the day: dress the boys in their cute St. Paddy's gear, attend the Birmingham parade, do a St. Paddy's craft with Beckahm, bake a mint, swirled cheesecake . . . well, it didn't really turn out how it was planned in my head (does it ever???). Guess we should have been in Birmingham CANADA at 12:00 this afternoon, after all that is where the parade actually took place! What a retard I am! At least I can laugh at myself now because it wasn't funny in the moment; poor Becks, I totally got him pumped up the past two days to attend a parade and Mommy just couldn't deliver.

In the end we flew to NYC (aka Birmingham Alabama) and saw the Statue of Liberty—second best way to celebrate our Irish Heritage :).
