Happy St. Patrick's Day

Our green dinner

Alyssa came home the weekend before last and insisted we have our green dinner early. So we did. It was fun. Here's Faith, Kaylee, the green kool-aid, green jello, corned beef, cabbage, green potatoes and green butter. Logan and the green bread

Bradley and Ruthanne
Jonathan, Ashley, Alyssa, Lexi and Skyler. Look at Ashley's face. Skyler doesn't look incredibly happy either. They must not be used to green meals.

So, do you kids remember when I used to make you sing this song on St. Patrick's Day:

Oh, me mother isn't Irish and me father isn't too
But today I feel as Irish as the really Irish do
For today I wear a shamrock that is very green and gay
And though I'm mostly Yankee, I'm Irish for today.

Have a great green day!

What is the tune to it? I don't recall ever hearing that before in my life.
