Irish Fair



Ceili, Erin, and Jon headed to St. Paul yesterday to attend Irish Fair. It was a very busy day and very long but Ceili handled it beautifully. She slept most of the drive down, only stopping to eat in Hinckley. When we arrived at Irish Fair we went to the Dance Tent to watch the dancers. As Erin was reading the schedule of events she commented that she had never seen Ceili's name written so much on one page! After watching the Ceili Dancers for a while we headed over to meet Uncle Josh and Cousins Max, Christian who just returned home from serving in the Army in Iraq, and Christian's wife Breann. The group made their way for a pint and some food, watched some rugby and sheep herding demonstrations, and than made their way to the main stage so Ceili could see her first concert. She seemed to really like Flogging Molly. The only time Ceili fussed was on the drive home after being strapped into her car seat for so long. We stopped again in Hinkley so Jon could feed her, but she wasn't having any of it. She wanted Mom. After Ceili's first taste of Irish culture we can't wait for St. Patrick's Day!
