First stop Ireland

I will say before you fly out of the country mental prepare yourself for a very long day. After getting to the airport, flights, layovers, more flights, more layovers, customs, bus ride to hotel, we finally made it. 20 plus hours of travel can be rough. Especially when things don't go as smoothly as one would hope. Heathrow airport
in London is a
rough one.

WE FINALLY MADE IT!!!

First stop on our list was the Storehouse Brewery in Dublin. Suitcases and all. The Storehouse is where Guinness is brewed. ( The beer of Ireland) We had prepaid tickets for 5pm and didn't think we had time to check into the hotel. Purchase your tickets online, it will help you save a some money and time. The Storehouse customer service was awesome. Since we already had tickets we didn't have to wait in line and they offered to hold on to our suitcases till we were done. This place was huge, 4 stories of information, start to finish of the how its made.

All of the pictures talked. The whole place was really cool and very impressive. Krista is in awe of the whole place. You can't see it in this picture but she has a smile from ear to ear. ( Just like a kid at Disneyland).

Old vintage advertisements

At the very top is the best. The view is amazing .

A pint of beer to sample was pretty nice too

There she is freshly poured, perfect froth and dark chocolate color

Krista gives it the seal of approval

Let's just say 'I'm not a beer drinker', I traded it for an orange sprite

CHEERS!!!!

Next will be the Cliff of Moher, Ring of Kerry and much more....

Welcome to

Scotland There should be no surprise that us girls would go here. The first day we drove around and found a really cute B and B. The next day we picked up Kristlynne. ( that's Kristas sister in law) I know what your thinking two crazy gals was trouble but three crazy gals. All 3 of us have some kind of connection with Scotland. As we were driving back from Sterling we stopped at the Kelpies . These horse heads are huge. They can be seen from the highway. A lot of creativity and work when into creating these. As an artist I can really respect what the artist has created. ...

DIY Wedding Ring Box

It's been a while since I shared a DIY project. My little brother got married, there's a few projects that I did for this joyous occasion. I am really excited about how they turned out. I wanted to share with everyone the Wedding ring box project. The bride has shown me a picture of one that she liked online. And I thought it would be an easy task to make one instead of buying one. I found this little box at Jo Ann's craft store. Frist I started by removing the hardware. Stained it a dark color. After that was done drying, it was painted with a cream color. Then lightly sanded the corners and some of the flat surfaces, for a rustic look. I used transferable paper to get the image onto the box. I had purchased a small thing of silk and used Polly fill, for where the rings will sit. I did have an oopsie, had put the words inside the lid upside down. It was an easy fix. I couldn't be any happier with the way it turned ...

Capri Italy

The island of Capri is a beautiful one. Here is just a few pictures that I thought everyone would enjoy. We are off and headed to the Island This is a Italy Coast Guard boat. Once a Coastie, always a Coastie. It looks like, they don't want cars driven into the water. The roads are very narrow. This is a very cute small town. It was surprising and scary at how close the drivers would get to each other. Picture from the top of the island. What a view!!!! This is how big the buses are, on this tiny little island. Headed to the famous Blue Grotto Sunlight, passing through an underwater cavity and shining through the seawater, creates a blue reflection that illuminates the cavern The water gets a darker blue the further you go in. After the Grotto, boarded the boat that would be taking us back to Sorrento, Italy. ...
