Just Enough Irish

The Passey clan is just enough Irish that every year we celebrate St. Patrick's Day; but we're not enough Irish to focus on only our Irish heritage. So St. Patrick's has become our ancestral heritage celebration. Each year a different ancestor or geographical area of our heritage is spotlighted. But we always have the traditional feast of corned beef and cabbage.

King Brian and his leprechauns spend the day counting their gold. But when the wee ones start to arrive the gold disappears back into the pot and King Brian sits guard.

If a wee one should scare him he flees in haste to hide the gold, leaving a trail of footprints.

It never fails that the wee ones are able to follow his footprints and find the pot of gold.

Would you like to be a leprechaun or sing along to ". . .oh, shes' my dear my darlin' one, her eyes are sparkling full of fun. . ." during Darby O'Gill and the Little People ?

The evening ends with a billard's tournament and the champion takes home the trophy.


Boy it's great to be Irish!
