St. Patrick's Day

        Many think of St. Patricks day as the day you wear green so that your friends don't pinch you, but there is so much more to it than that! Where did it come from, anyways? According to St. Patrick's Day, St. Patrick's day started when the patron saint of Ireland, St. Patrick, passed away. Originally, families would feast, dance, and drink to celebrate his life. Now, we do slightly different things for St. Patricks day. Some of the things we do are wear green and and attend parades. As St. Patrick's Day states, "More than 100 St. Patrick's Day parades are held across the United States." That's insane! As you can see, there's nothing too fancy about our traditions, but they are what we know.
