Dublin- Day 1

Hello from Ireland! 

I thought we'd never make it! Although the flight wasn't as bad as I was anticipating, the jet lag is so much worse. The first day was kind of a blur but I was able to power through feeling sick and tired. I'm hoping each day I'll get a little bit better!

When Tim told me we were renting a car I was a little terrified. I'm so glad we did though! He's doing a great job driving and it's giving us so much freedom! 

Tim worked from 9:00 to about 2:00 and then we went to the Temple Bar area to explore the cobblestone streets lined with pubs and cute shops

River Liffey

We stumbled across our first castle right in the middle of the city

Tim spotted a mint building in the background and made me take a pic

 

St. Pauls Cathedral

This little guy was running free and hopping over people who were napping in the grass!

Bike parking in front of Trinity College

We are staying at a country club on a beautiful golf course. These pictures were taken around 10 PM!

Spring Lunch

Our Easter this year was very quiet. We spent it with Tim's sister Leah and her fiance and we ended up going to Yard House.

Last weekend my family came over for a make-up lunch...a Spring lunch if you will. It was so nice to have my sister stay with us a couple nights and help so much with the cooking.

Linus gets his blinking from me.

 

Tim and I couldn't resist ruining at least on picture.

My Cup of Tea Sunday: Easter Dress Inspiration

Taking Stock

The longer I wait in between posts the harder it is to get back into it.

I saw this whole "Taking Stock" idea here and decided it would be a great way to catch up and maybe break the ice again.
