Happy St. Paddy's Day! 
We hope you donned your prettiest of greens today in the spirit of celebrating 
the beautiful Emerald Isle... Cheers!]


A few fun facts about this Irish cultural & religious holiday..

*Ireland got its nickname "The Emerald Isle" because of its 
"emerald green fields and rolling landscape."

 *Saint Patrick carried a shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity.

*Though the color of Saint Patrick was blue, green became the symbol of Irish Catholic Nationalism.

(re: green fields & shamrock)

*In the US, wearing green on St. Paddy's Day is a symbol & celebration of expressing identity.
