Happy St. Patrick's Day / Happy Pat's Birthday

Or should I say "Happy Birthday Pat!" Either way it all falls on the same day. Olivia's Uncle Pat had another birthday on St. Patrick's day and every year it is tradition for him and Grandpa Manning to go gambling. This year Aunt Nancy and Grandma decided to go along.

I had forgotten about the traditional casino day and invited Grandma and Grandpa over for St. Patrick's Day dinner and since they were all together celebrating all day I had Nancy and Pat over for dinner too.

We had all the fixings....corned beef, cabbage, carrots, red potatoes, green cupcakes, mint ice cream, Guinness beer and Irish Whiskey.

For only making corned beef once a year it all turned out really good and we had a good time.

Happy Birthday Pat! We hope you had a great day!
