I never realized what a big celebration St. Patrick's Day is, until we moved to New Jersey, and it is BIG! A week & 1/2 before the big day, we went with Tad's boss Rayman to a St. Patty's Day parade in Hoboken. The weather was beautiful and the bagpipes were aplenty! We enjoyed celebrating Jersey style.
We stopped on the way to the parade and got a "slice" of pizza for the boys - they actually ate almost the entire piece.
Can't celebrate without an Ireland flag.
Fabulous babpipes and drums - and LOTS of them!
The parade goers were everywhere and nothing but a sea of green!
My girlfriends Heather and Jen and I made a goal to run the St. Patty's Day 5K in Morristown, NJ. We trained and finally race day came......DOWNPOUR of rain!Notice we are not soaking wet, and we still have make-up on, as this is in my neighborhood before the race.
After the 5K - soaking wet!
After the 5K - soaking wet!We were glad Kristy could join us too!
You guys are awesome! Thanks for doing it with me!!

How great to have running buddies!
i hate that i'm missing it all! So good to see you all have a good time!
Ok um wow on the huge slice of pizza, where in the world was that from? So awesome you guys did a 5k together even. It's so much easier when running with other people you know, and like. :)
You guys look awesome. Nice job on the run. Jealous I couldn't be out there with you guys!
Thanks for encouraging me to do the race with you. I'm pretty proud of ourselves for doing it in such crummy conditions. :) Maybe next time we'll have better luck with the weather!
