Adios PA!

My sister and her family have moved!
I could not be more excited!
I am sorry Philly - don't take it personally...we had a good run and I can honestly say I won't miss you. Don't call me PLEASE.

On the other hand, the last time I visited I forgot to post some pictures...so here they are...love my PA girls! (Eve and Adrienne were there too - oops!)

Fly Fishing 101






I am learning how to Fly Fish and so far it has been wonderful! There are few things/places in life that let me forget all of my worries (work, health, family, cleaning, world peace, etc. etc.)but it looks like I found one for the list!

My PA Girls



I sure love my little nieces! They are little lights of heaven! I got to go to PA a few weeks ago and visit them before they move to North Carolina. It was a dream. They are fun and loving and really great little girls. I miss them (again) already!

(PS - If you are a niece or nephew not posted in this blog - don't worry I LOVE YOU too! I just don't have updated pictures of you - yet! XOXO)

Ireland

With St.Patrick's Day fast approaching I recall the fun times with my sisters visting Ireland. It was beautiful, green, and dreamy! We went in February to avoid the crowds and enjoy better weather then Utah was having.





I got to kiss the blarney stone without waiting in line! (I hope I remembered to wash my mouth afterward - kind of crossed out by the thought of kissing something millions of others have kissed as well! Eww!)





I got to visit the infamous Cliffs of Moor (Princess Brides - "Cliffs of Insanity") and nearly injured myself in the process. The day we went - it was so so windy/rainy. The wind was so bad that the cliff Rangers had come inside and advised everyone who entered and exited to do so at their own risk. Keep in mind these Rangers hung out at the Cliffs of Moor for a living and were used to a little wind! This was BIG wind! Being determined to see the Cliffs that I had heard so much about and not “waste” my trip to Ireland, we braved the wind and rain. (To paint a picture – the wind was so fierce that you could jump up in the air and the wind would push you 3-4 feet forward!) It was beautiful and breathtaking and totally worth the danger!

After looking around and having fright-filled fun – we headed back to the parking lot to get in the car. As I was getting in I noticed something on the seat and reached in to retrieve whatever it was. As all this was happening, the wind picked up and slammed the door shut with me in the middle. I was literally getting squished by the wind. I panicked and yelled for my sisters to help, but as they realized what was going on – they burst into laughter and could breathe, let alone help their sister! What a memory… we still laugh and occasionally have dreams about that wind! How I miss it sometimes!


I loved Ireland and hope to be able to visit it again someday!
