I wanted to do a round up of photos from our trip but I was finding the task a bit daunting, so I decided to simplify. One photo of Tiny in each country we explored and the finale ended up working out to be one of our very few family shots. What a wild ride it was, not her first big adventure but the biggest outside the womb (I'll share that other story sometime soon, it really deserves its very own post). Oh the places you've been little one, it really goes to show - home is where your heart is. xo

Ireland

Eight years ago I ventured to the Emerald Isle for a brief 2 week stint Which lasted 4 years. At the end of my time there I found my Richard and left my love affair with Ireland for his land down under.  Almost 4 years later to the date we met, we return with our little red headed baby girl and revisited the loved ones that those first four years had brought, plus a few more that stemmed from the Southern Hemisphere. Our travels took us all over the country, from the North to the South, East to West each stopover too short,  each reunion so sweet. My dearest Ireland and all the beautiful friends that grace it's green grass, for you:

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,
Until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Lottie Cakes: Splashing in Muddy Puddles. A very special photo, I caught you mid air in the same spot of your parents very first kiss, almost four years later to the date. A kiss that would lead to a beautiful love that would lead to you. We have travelled around the country, introducing you to old friends and recreating paths taken years ago that have brought us to where we are today. The craics been mighty, the laughter has been plenty and its like a not a day in the last 4 years has passed!

More photos to come, for now we are boarding a plane to the South of France!

Ireland

Lottie Cakes: We have arrived in the country where your parents met and fell in love. The rain is falling but we could care less because we're surrounded by Friends and Love and Guinness, of course!

This chilly swimming experience for you was a bit of a shock to the system after weeks in Thailand and the English heatwave but whats more fitting on this crazy Island than a pool in the middle of a cow paddock?!

Sláinte!
