Happy St. Patrick's Day from our leprechaun. I take no responsibility for this outfit. It was all her father.

The Donovans

They say everyone's Irish on St. Patrick's Day, but in honor of the real Irish folks in my family tree, herewith, the Donovans:

Great Grandpa Donovan, Grandma, Great Grandma (Anna) Donovan (probably not long before she died), Aunt Carol.

Grandma and Aunt Carol. I love the shoes.

Great Grandma (Seddie) and Great Grandpa Donovan.

Aunt Sara, who may or may not have been genetically Irish but who certainly looked it. I always think of her at this time of year especially.
