St. Patty's Day Parade

I got some great pictures of the parade.  The weather was PERFECT!  We had so much fun with our friends the Mullers!  Philip took Bert's place for the day because Bert had to work.  We will definitely be going back next year. 

I would like to take some time to brag about my little brother Philip.  I don't know to many twenty one year olds who would have agreed to take Bert's place for the day.  My little brother was more than happy to go to the parade and have fun with his niece and nephew.  Philip has such a mature uplifting attitude about life.  He is always willing to help.  He is going to be an incredible Father one day.  He already knows when someone needs a drink, paci, a hug, to be walked around the restaurant for a little while, setting up strollers, grabbing diaper bags, hands washed, etc.  He has had a lot of practice with 3 nephews, two nieces, and one more on the way.  He is simply amazing to me, and does all this with a smile and warm heart.  I love you Philip!  I can't thank you enough for joining me yesterday.  You made the day so peaceful and pleasant.
