St. Pattys Day - The 2012 Edition

March 18th, that can only mean one thing, another St.Pattys Day is over and we have to wait another year before we get to do it again! 

We had a blast yesterday!  Easily one of the best St. Pattys EVER!  :)  Here are some of the highlights:

  • First of all, the weather!  We had absolutely AMAZING weather this year!  The temps were in the upper 70s and bright sunshine all day long!
  • When we got down to the South Side we found an actual parking lot (not a random spot on the street).  They were charging $10 to park there for the day which was more than worth it in my opinion!  (13th to Muriel - In case I'm trying to remember where that great parking lot was next year!)
  • We were ahead of the crowd getting to Fatheads so we got to have an awesome lunch without having to wait for a table.
  • We were able to watch the Pens play while we were at the bar & they won & Sidney Crosby got to play! (that was for you Stef - lol)
  • We saw a midget dressed like a leprechaun.. more than once...haha
  • Quote of the day: "I need a VIIIZZZAAA" - thanks Ree!
  • Casey snuck in to Local with the trash guy....  "Shut up Casey - you came in with the TRASH!"
  • The line for pizza was too long so me, Gary and Erin ate dinner at Bob Evans on the way home.  Our waitress just loved us!  haha
  • And last but not least, Lyla had a super fun day with her Auntie Em and Uncle G!  They played outside all day and were all three smiles when we got home!
Bottom line - we had a great day hanging out and just getting to visit with our best friends!  That is what St. Pattys Day is all about in my opinion!

And now for some of my pictures:
