North Texas Irish Festival

Amy's brother Glenn and his family were in town this past weekend for a visit. We had a great time with them here in Dallas. On Saturday we went to the North Texas Irish Festival.

Sarah and Samantha watching the bagpipers while we were waiting in line for tickets.


Evan hugging the sheep - he went up and hugged each one.

Petting a rabbit and a sheep at the petting zoo.


Eating a hotdog with daddy while watching a band play - he really enjoyed the Irish music.

Yes, we took the monkey harness with us. It is so great these days with a very independent Evan who wants to walk on his own and yet will disappear in a second. We actually saw a few other monkeys and dogs along the way.
Irish Evan...yes, we are "these parents."


Watching the Town Pants perform. Evan was way past naptime but loving the music, he is sitting on Jeff's lap - the yellow shirt on the left.

Evan decided to go up to the stage to walk and dance. He also reached up to the band members wanting on the stage. He was so tired that he was a little wobbly at times. The band referred to him as what was in the future of the people at the festival later on the in the evening - the staggering - and Sarah (shown here helping him back to me) as Security.

We had a lot of fun over the weekend and Evan is especially grateful for the toys and rocking horse that Sarah and Samantha handed down to him - thank you!

We also have a monkey harness. We have not used it much lately but I sure should bring it back out and use it again.

Looks like a fun weekend! I especially like the picture of Evan eating a hot dog! :) Good job!
