Sunday’s weather wasn’t as warm as it was on the real St. Patrick’s Day.  But it was still a nice sunny day to celebrate and attend the South Boston St. Patrick’s Day parade.

Jared and I walked to Southie from our South End apartment.  As we crossed the West 4th bridge, we saw groups assembling for the parade.  It was fun to walk through and get a sneak preview before the parade started.

Halfway through the parade, we got hungry and cold and decided to head back to the house.  It was time for the party to begin!  Drinks, snacks, and game!  Beer pong!

Miles and I stayed safely away from the action.  I enjoyed a solitary can of Guinness and hung out with my favorite corgi.  I’m a little bit disappointed that I didn’t have any green beer.  But after my Guinness, I had a delicious glass of Rioja and in my mind, wine will always trump beer.

The games continued, but I got cold so I went inside to warm up by the fire place and hang out with the 3 dogs.

Hoagie, Weber, and Miles enjoyed the shenanigans.

It wouldn’t be a party without a delicious meal.  Homemade burgers with toppings and a giant Caesar salad.

I had lots of fun celebrating St. Patrick’s Day for the 2nd time.
