Official Game Photos!

We received the link today for the professional photos from the Cumann na Mbunscoil competition in Croke park. I am adding all the photos of Dylan, there is total photo overload!! But I am just so proud of him! I also just love the joy on his face when he gets his medal, we are still on a high following the big game! It's great to have the official game photographer copies of all of these amazing memories!

Well Done Dylan

Sophie's first 6 months

Sophie has been enjoying all sorts of firsts here with us, the kids have been so good and having a great time being dog owners! I'm proud of how well they are doing with Sophie! She has tripled in size since she arrived here in June, and we are besotted with her! The cats are slowly getting used to her, and I think she has settled in here with us really well! 

I've added a collection of photos for the kids to look back on

Grandma's 70th Birthday

Tonight we celebrated Grandma Rose's 70th birthday,  Grandma Rose is Derek's mom so it was all of Derek's family there last night, and it was an amazing night, the food was beautiful and of course the company! we went for dinner on a boat on the river Liffey called the  Kill Airne. We had a really great night.

 Dylan and Lauren were still down with my mom and dad after we had my dad's 60th last night! so we made the most of the break by having a night out to celebrate another milestone birthday!

It was a very busy but lovey weekend celebrating these big occasions, Rosaleen had a fantastic party, and she loved having all of her kids around her! 

Happy Birthday Rosaleen

my lovely new dress I got for the night! 
Birthday girl!







We also had another huge milestone last night- Derek's baby sister and her boyfriend announced that they are getting married! It was an amazing surprise, and we are all absolutely delighted for them!

 Congratulations Orla and Darren!

Dad's 60th Birthday

Last night we celebrated my Dad's 60th birthday! I can't believe how fast that went by! we took him for a very special meal in MacCleary's in Waterford and he had a really amazing time, we even took the kids out to dinner with us.

Of course we had to take some family photos before we went out!

I cannot get over the size of Dylan in these photo! he is almost the same height as me now... and his feet are bigger than mine now, I am a little sad that he is growing so fast!



My little princess in her new dress! how cute is she!?
