For the second year we had everyone over for breakfast before we headed over to The Abbey Pub to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Unfortunately we didn't get the camera out until we headed over to the pub, so we don't have any photos from the house. However, a great time was had by all at both Breakfast and at the Pub.
I got the privilege of taking Andy's kids to a bar for the first time. (Don't tell Kari!)
After spending a good 7 hours at the pub we returned to the house to party a little longer. One of the new engineers at Chicago Faucet spend the day with us and I think really enjoyed herself. Her name is Whitney and she's all around good people because she and her fiancee are Reds fans and being from Nashville understand what real BBQ is! Whitney showed her southern roots by closing out the party at our house by demanding Free Bird by Lynard Skynard!
It was a great day all around. Jen and Tony came up to the Pub after going to a lecture at the Science and Industry Museum. The rest of the Chicago Crew was there with the exceptions being Grady and Keith. Keith was down with an illness and Grady was at a med conference in Austin. However, Chris and Eileen made it, as you know we couldn't celebrate anything Irish without Eileen!!
