We're All Irish Today!

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine soft upon you face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields,
 And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand. 
Traditional Gaelic Blessing



My school teacher jewelry for St. Paddy's Day...


My St. Paddy's Day pig with Shamrock made in Germany...
 
My Scottish ancestors had two sons who left Scotland and settled in County Tyrone, Ireland  in 1674..  They married, had issue, and on or about 1702, crossed from Ireland to America where they settled in Pennsylvania and later Augusta County, Virginia.  Does that make me Irish or am I Scottish once removed?

Or am I full of Blarney???
