Happy St. Patrick's Day

As you all know, we love St. Patrick's Day as it is the day Stuart and I became engaged.  We felt very "lucky" for the second year in a row now that we have Leighton.  This year we celebrated with our lil leprechaun by attending the Raleigh St. Patrick's Day Parade.  As you can imagine, we saw some pretty interesting characters and sights.  Leighton loved being outside and watching the people go by.  She was NOT happy at the end when the firetruck drove by and blared it's sirens.  It hurt my ears so I know it had to startle her to death.  Poor girl, she quickly recovered with the comfort and kisses from her daddy.  Enjoy our family pics from the day and some of the unusual characters we caught on camera.
