Happy St. Patrick's Day, Everyone!




The Human's Irish side:

Great-Grandmother Ellen (called Nan) and Great-Grandfather Joseph when they were just a young lad & lassie . . .












and Joseph (quite) a few years later (apparently auditioning for Eliza's father in My Fair Lady, MOL).










They don't seem to have had a cat. Pity.

What? No cat?
Joseph looks generally happier than Ellen about the whole situation, doesn't he?
I am Irish by adoption, Spitty. Happy St Patrick's Day!

That's too bad they didn't have any cats. Happy St. Patrick's Day, Spitty.

Great photos, Spitty. But you're right ... they are sadly lacking cats!

You cracked us up with that comment about Great-Grandfather Joseph auditioning for the role of Eliza's father in My Fair Lady!

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you and your human! We lubs you!

What neat pictures, even if cat-free. Happy St. Patrick's Day to you and your human, O'Spitty! And come see--Caroline's got her green on today.

My human has one Irish great-grandparent. Considering the couple's last name was Longridge, she is guessing it was the great-grandmother.

Spitty, you look so cute in the header! Misty May loves it. The old photos are amazing. Our mommy's maternal grandparents were both Irish so she is half Irish. Does that make us 1/4 Irish? MOL! XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
