Love o' the Irish

Sunday was one of my favorite days of the year! The Belmar St. Patrick's Day Parade! Every year...rain or shine...we are there. And boy did we get a break this year...it was beautiful out!!!! We arrived around 10:30am to get our spot, adnt hankfully got exactly where we wanted to be. By the time the parade got down by us (around 1) the crowds were packed in behind us. We brought Jerry to his first parade and first time in public. He did great! He was very excited when we first arrived, but by the 100th person stopping to pet him, he had calmed down a lot. But we did discover that he HATES drums. He would just go crazy when the drums went by. But he met a lot of other dogs, and did so well. We were so proud of him. Ally and Pat had a good time as well. Patrick had his friend, Chloe, there with him, so that was helpful. Then he enjoyed entertaining the corwd by standing a few feet out into the street and dancing as the bands went by. (Allyson was little more low-key...since she spent a lot of her time texting. Gotta love pre-teen girls)
Some pics are below from our awesome day! And now the countdown begins until next year's!
