Tadhg celebrates Saint Patrick's day

Tadhg celebrated Saint Patrick's day on Wednesday. It was his third Saint Patrick's day and his second in Prague where it is not really celebrated outside of Irish homes and pubs. Tadhg's mom made some special Saint Patrick's day cookies on Tuesday night and Tadhg brought them into school on Wednesday morning to share with his teacher and class mates. The cookies were so popular that Tadhg's mom was asked for the recipe!

Tadhg's Irish grandparents sent a care pack with some Patrick's day goodies and Tadhg wore his new green t-shirt and Ireland fleece. He enjoyed pointing out the leprechaun on his t-shirt.

Tadhg, mom and dad went to an Irish bar for dinner and met a group of Irish girls wearing green tops and big hats. Tadhg was fascinated by them and kept pointing at the 'leprechauns'. Tadhg enjoyed sitting at the bar with daddy and was far too excited to sit still and eat his dinner. He was much happier dancing around the table!

After a busy Saint Patrick's day, Tadhg was happy to settle into bed with his blue bear. When Tadhg was asleep, Mom and dad shared a beer and had a quieter than usual celebration of Ireland's national holiday.
