I'm seeing green!



Happy St. Patricks Day!!!

that's "Webdings" for

Happy St. Patricks Day!!!

(what the heck is that webdings font anyways - who speaks that language????)

Being that my name is "Shannon Cheney"
(and no - I'm not related to any vice president)

we celebrated in true IRISH fashion:

Ye Old Irish Family........

Ye corn beef and cabbage
(looked better in person and tasted YUMMY)

Is this too much green?

what you can't see is that these were all blinking lights - it was cool :}
And now I leave you with some Irish blessings & wisdom:

"May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you In the palm of his hand."
(I love that one)
Dance as if no one's watching,
sing as if no one's listening,
and live everyday as if it were your last.
(I'm just glad that no one is watching when I dance or listening when I sing)
A whistling woman and a crowing hen
will bring no luck to the house they are in.
(huh?)

Oh well, the corn beef was good :}
Happy green day

Cathi, you have to remember that most of these Irish sayings were made by little Irish Men who had one to many beers in the Irish taverns - in other words - I have no Idea what it means :}
