St Paddy's Day Weekend Recap 2018

This past weekend we celebrated St. Paddy's Day the best way we know how! With leprechaun's, parades, corn beef and beer!


Our Saturday started out like most Saturday's with a trip to gymnastics. It was pajama day so Lincoln had fun playing and jumping in the comfort of his pajamas and this mama was grateful for not having to get him dressed (ha!). After gymnastics we made the trek downtown for the parade.




Spokane is a fairly small city with not a ton of traffic, but I swear it took us 45 minutes to go 3 blocks on Saturday. Apparently everyone had the same idea of parking in the mall garage for the parade because from the time we got off the freeway to the time we got downtown took FOREVER. We made it though, and after grabbing a quick bite to eat at the mall food court, headed out to watch the parade.



The parade did not disappoint and Lincoln got his fair share of candy along with an eyeful of trucks, leprechauns and various other parade peeps!


That evening we headed back home for Corn Beef and Shepard's Pie with my parents. Lincoln and I also whipped up some green inspired dessert and made Mint Chocolate M&M Cookies with Mint Ice Cream. After too much food and beer, we all headed off to bed.

Sunday was a pretty laid back day, but we had a TON of leftover corn beef so my parents came back over and we made Corn Beef and Irish Cheddar sliders to have to round out the weekend.

Through it all, our newest little side kick was a trooper and tagged along (and slept) through most of the fun!
