It’s been a while since I’ve posted on my poor little blog! It’s not that I haven’t been crafting, because I sure have! It’s just so hard for me to remember to take a picture once I finish let alone come up with something to say about it other than “YAY!!”.
So, lots of things have gone on in the last 5 years but right now I want to focus on my trip to Ireland! I have been waiting to go to Ireland for over 10 years! And my friends 2017 was my year. It all started when I was at my friend, Bailey’s house and we were talking about places we would love to visit and she mentioned that she would love to visit Ireland. My face immediately lit up because I have too but didn’t want to go by myself because it seemed like it would be so fun to experience it with a friend. So we talked about it a little more and decided to do research on how much a trip would cost. We also talked about what we HAD/WANTED to see and/or experience while we were there and how long we wanted to stay. I think we did a ton of research on different ways to get there and if we wanted to do a self guided tour or an escorted tour. The verdict was that for us, an escorted tour was the way to go. So we bit the bullet and bought our tickets in April for a September departure. When I clicked that button and bought those tickets I had the most wonderful feeling of excitement and disbelief. We were actually going to do this! We were going to Ireland!
