We had a fun weekend celebrating the Irish holiday. The weather has been amazing and Texas has been very good to us on all fronts. Many people have welcomed us in and made us feel at home and we are very grateful. Great people make all the difference. Even though we are enjoying our time here, sometimes homesickness has a tendency to still creep in. We have found a good way to help overcome the 'homesickness' is to get together with awesome friends, so we had a St. Patrick's Day Party. Friends help take your mind off things and make life fun. The party was a good time and of course involved an element of chaos, which you can always expect with a large number of kids. We did silly pictures, ate green food, and even managed to survive a scavenger hunt. Ha! The Millets came over for a green brunch Sunday morning, which was a highlight. Memories were made and I think we even avoided getting pinched. :)
A few of the faces from the party.
Kate refused to have her picture taken.
The girls wanted to get Brett into the fun and dressed him up. He was a good sport.
Amber and I did the St.Patrick's Day 10K in Temple, TX. It was a windy run but beautiful with fields of yellow flowers.
