Orla's hen party

This weekend we celebrated my sister-in-law with a wonderful hen weekend. It was in beautiful Ferns, Co. Wexford a little private venue called "The old Deanery" there were small private cottages and beautiful grounds.  We had a fabulous "Alice on Wonderland" themed afternoon tea with the Bride to be loved! And then dinner and a karaoke. It was hilarious and we had a wonderful time!

Our trip to Wexford

This week the kids and I went with a friend and her daughter to Screen, Co.Wexford, we stayed in a friend's house. It was spectacular! we spent three nights there and it was absolutely amazing, it was so hot and we went to the beach every day.

The last night Derek joined us and we went to the funfair and we brought Sophie along with us

We had the most amazing time together with great friends in Wexford, a great way to spend the last of our summer holidays! It was definitely well needed rest and relaxation!
