St. Paddy's Day

It was a beautiful day in the City today. We went to the St. Patrick's Day Parade. So much fun! Thank god for the Irish, they really know how to party.

The kids (we borrowed Una for the day to up our Irish street cred, thanks to the Martins) had a lot of fun riding on the Carpenter's Union float and throwing out candy.

Dad had a lot of fun watching at all the insanely drunk Irish college girls in short shorts. New rule; if the pockets are longer than the shorts, they shouldn't be worn in public.

Here are some photos (none of the co-eds, this is a family blog after all!).

The lead float

The overflow float. Hi Lazlo!

Una took her candy throwing duties very seriously.

Nice bumper sticker.

Lazlo pointing out where the candy was.

No, this is not an ad for CHASE bank.

Sledding!

65 degrees, sunny and sledding. What a day!

Gung Hay Fat Choy!

Chinese New Year was last Thursday. It is a big deal here in SF where 1 in 5 residents is Chinese. Public schools are off, BIG parades, etc. Here is some footage and photos of a small parade put on by Lalzo's preschool. They made their own section of dragon, strung them together and marched a block around on Clement St. outside the school. It was very cute. Josie got to take part in it as she was off school that day too!

We had a cookie making party today. It was off the hook.

Getting Older

No, this is not about me turning 40 on Friday (sigh). It is about Josie losing her first tooth!

We were at a sing along showing of the Sound of Music at the Castro Theater today. During the scene where Rolph and the other Nazi scum were chasing the Von Trapps through the abbey, Josie started screaming. I thought it was from anxiety about the movie until she articulated, "MY TOOTH FELL OUT!"

We are expecting a visit from the tooth fairy tonight. How exciting!

Superlazlo!

Memorial Day/Anniversary Weekend

Well, we've made it seven years. We were reminiscing today about our wedding and how much fun it was to have so many great people together at one time. I miss all the weddings!

Anyhow, to celebrate we went camping, California Style. Enjoy the photos.
