Top of the morning to you.

after waking up this morning and getting dressed i came downstairs to fix some coffee and get my bible study on and then i realized two things...it is st. patricks day and i forgot to wear something green.

so, after i get loaded up with some delicious caffeine

i must retreat back upstairs to change into some more appropriately festive, luck of the irish attire.

the picture to the right is a magnet i have on my fridge of my third son ethan which was taken on his first st. paddy's day, four years ago. it puts a smile on my face every time i walk past it as I remember that day and how our friends thought he was the most adorable child ever with that green wig on, which by the way he wore all day.

wishing everyone a fun, safe st. patrick's day. drink too much beer. and don't pinch or be pinched.

And though we may not admit it, we all secretly get a little rage of jealousy when we read on Facebook about someone's trip home and they have 'checked in' at Taco John's. Or what about when somebody is on a road trip and they post that they have stumbled upon a Taco John's and they are now enjoying something out of that brown paper bag and then us folks that live in Taco...
