A Trip to Remember

Two Thursdays ago, I made my way to the Airport. I was headed to Dublin, not just for St. Patricks Day but for my sisters birthday as well. There were a few speed bumps getting there, such as having to switch flights last minute, and in the process losing my bag for 24 hrs. However, once I was there I knew it could only get better. Any attempt to recover from the 2 hrs of sleep I had gotten in almost 30 hrs was a lost cause, but I knew I just had to push through. I was meeting up with my cousins and little sister on her birthday - and it was immediately a "GO GO GO!!!" situation. It was cold and rainy, but it was enjoyable to wander the crowded streets in hopes of staying warm and finding some cool tees for the following day's (St. Patrick's Day) events. I think it is safe to say that St. Patricks Day in Dublin is one of the coolest events I have experienced! The bars are so packed at times you literally I pressed between 2 people so tightly that you can't move a single limb. Everyone is singing and drinking and no one has a care in the world! 

After Dublin, I wandered onto London and stayed with my cousin's family for a few days. It was nowhere near a tourist's vacation. It was a very domesticated few days. I felt like a live in babysitter while I watched and played with my cousin's 3 yr. old daughter, and occasionally held her 9 month old son.  Anyways, check out some of our fun pictures. 

There were are... TWINSIES! Unfortunately, I had my sweatshirt on since it was freezing... and since my bag was MIA.. I had no long sleeve tees to match the rest.   If you like my jeans you can buy them at my store... They are my favorite!

I wish I had another picture to better show the characters and their costumes that were roaming the streets that day. 

We celebrated St Patty's day by all getting matching Toms that morning.

I had to laugh when I saw this sign. I thought it was noteworthy. 

The sun was literally bright red when it was setting in London, it was one of the coolest things I've seen.
