Knock knock!

Who's there?
Irish
Irish who?
Irish you a Happy St. Patrick's Day! ♣

Two days ago, at our church school, where Madeleine is an eighth grader, I saw a young group of Irish dancers perform.  One of the girls, now a high school senior, used to attend our school.  The group is called Glencastle Irish Dancers.  It was a fun time.  My favorite part was a march actually.  I had never seen this performed at our school or at Irish Fest or at Riverdance.  This group has performed it, just never at our school, so I have just never seen it.  It was called "Guarding the Glen".  It is to emulate the guards marching and protecting the castle hundreds of years ago. My hair literally stood on end from it.  So loud!  And this is just with 32 students!

Irish you a very "Happy St. Patrick's Day," too, Vickie :) How nice that you were able to see such a wonderful performance. Having no dance ability at all, I always am in awe of those who do!

Wishing you all the blessings of St Patrick Vickie,
Irish dancing when done properly makes the hair stand on the back of your neck and there is nothing so beautiful.
I hope your enjoying your books and I loved your little cement poodles from the other days post, very cute.

Happy Belated St Patty's Day to you! I've never seen Irish dancers, so I bet that was fun and interesting.
