I'm not Irish, but Kiss me Anyway! The Parks head to the wildest St. Patrick's Day Parades in the city!!!

St. Patrick's Day, The day of The Festival of Patrick is a cultural and religious holiday celebrated on the 17th of March. It commemorates St. Patrick, the most commonly recognized of the patron saints of Ireland, and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland.
It is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion (especially the Church of Ireland), the Eastern Orthodox Church and Lutheran Church. Saint Patrick's Day was made an official feast day in the early seventeenth century, and has gradually become a celebration of Irish culture in general.
The day is generally characterised by the attendance of church services,wearing of green attire and the lifting of Lenten restrictions on eating, and drinking alcohol.
Saint Patrick's Day is a public holiday in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Newfoundland and Labrador and in Montserrat. It is also widely celebrated by the Irish diaspora, especially in places such as Great Britain, Canada, the United States, Argentina, Australia, and New Zealand, among others. Today, St. Patrick's Day is probably the most widely celebrated saint's day in the world

The Parks headed to the parade today in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. We took some great pics, enjoy!

SheSpeaks Program is so *Simple*

How willing are you to  discover, influence and share products? If you are anything like me, I know how much you would enjoy the SheSpeaks community. This exclusive group is powered by women who love to be in the know and share the latest and greatest with the rest of the world.

I was a very lucky recipient of a fantastic skincare product made by Simple [The UK's #1 Facial skincare line] The Smoothing Facial Scrub was exactly what my sensitive skin needed! I was pleased to find that there was Pro-Vitamin B5 which helps to replenish your skin's condition in every way and Vitamin E, which I  swear by if you've checked my Pinterest! This product is affordable at under $10 and I also love the fact that it's fragrance free, and colorless with no harsh irritants. My skin felt so clean with no residue and I loved the rice granules that exfoliated my skin keeping it vibrant.

*Dermatologist tested
*Noncomedogenic
*Hypoallergenic

Product size is 5oz. Worth the purchase!

*I was thrilled to receive this free product sample from SheSpeaks and Simple!

Well Bobbi gobbled up her Free product sample I received so promptly through BzzAgent and Hill's Science Diet. She loved it and isn't even interested in her previous cat food anymore! As soon as I opened the bag, she was getting crazy in the bowl, I didn't expect the reaction I received from her and was very pleasantly surprised by how she attacked this food. I'm an investigator by nature, so I quickly read the ingredients which included fresh chicken, fruits & vegetables, including cranberries, whole grains, added vitamins and minerals among highly digestible protein.

This tasty food provides a balanced nutritious diet for your pet (yes, for dogs too!)
