St. Patty's and Easter

Tomorrow we leave for the States for a long-deserved Clough family reunion. We can't wait for good home-cooked meals, fun times at the farm, and a gathering with an awesome family! We will return to Germany on the 27th and two days later, will host the Catlin sisters on a tour of Germany. This will be full of adventures, mishaps and fun stories we will look forward to re-telling on the blog.

The past three days have been an incredible never-ending St. Patty's day. We began the celebration at the James Joyce pub on Friday to see some friends in a band play there, then continued on Saturday when we returned for another night on the town with some of Jon's co-workers. Last night, the actual St. Patty's day, we celebrated at the Irish pub with an authentic Dublin band that played some great traditional Irish tunes. It was a really fun night, although no one does up St. Patty's day like good ole Scruffy Murphy's in Waco or Greenville Avenue in Dallas.

On Sunday, we "starred" in another stellar performance at our church as "disciple John" and "mother Mary" in an Easter play. Our friends, the Aussies, were also acting in the play, so it was really fun to have all of us roped into performing together.

Happy Easter to all and we'll catch ya next week!
