St. Patricks Day 2007

I am still grinning from FINALLY attending Butte's infamous St. Patrick's Day celebration. It was an unseasonably warm and sunny day, with lots of family abound to celebrate with. I want to thank Eddie and Nadine for being my escorts! You guys rock!

Here are my pics - I didn't take that many, probably b/c I was having so much fun. I also had a video camera in hand so you could say I was multitasking quite a bit.

Frightning Discoveries While Cleaning Out Pantry

Mom asked Dad and I for help cleaning out the pantry yesterday. As Mom and Dad simply transfer each item from one place to another, I found my role in saying --- WAIT a minute, how OLD is that? I filled up 3 garbage bags of stuff they would have simply kept on the shelves. Gag.

Couple of things were SHOCKING in that they looked like they have been sitting on the shelves since 1954.

Take a look!

Rosie O'Grady and Blue Polaski Make Friends

Poor Rosie has taken the brunt of Blue coming to live up in Butte, MT. Blue loves to play with Rosie, often making Dad tense b/c Blue loves to grab ahold of Rosie's collar and swing her around. Personally I think Rosie thinks the game is quite fun.

Rosie and Blue are becoming fast pals.

Mom's 64th B-day

Mom had quite a b-day weekend this year for her b-day. Here are some pics of the party and the weekend that followed out at the lake.

Moved to Montana! / Pics of Chris

Life is unexpected, that's what makes it life - kind of cool actually. Living in Montana now -- staying with my folks b/c my mom is sick and I am here to help out.

When I arrived back at the end of February, brother Chris and his wife Michele were already here visiting. Caught a couple of pics of them in their St. Patty's Day garb -- they prepared for the holiday in the right place -- Butte, MT has one of the best celebrations in the nation. This year will be even more crazy I anticipate b/c it falls on a Saturday. Hotels in town have been booked up for weeks. It will be my first one, so let's hope I survive!
