Cliffs of Moher and the Whitman's

We had a great time last week with our friends the Whitman's. My college roommate and friend, Lizzy, and her husband 'the Doug' came to visit before they welcome their little baby this fall. They were troopers dealing with our kids especially because their vacation involved a trip to the West of Ireland to see the Cliffs of Moher and that meant at least 7 hours in the car with 2 little guys. Here are a few pictures:

Pretty spectacular. The Cliffs, not me. The tumor looking thing on my chest is Owen's head...he was in the Bjorn and it was really windy and wet so in the jacket he stayed.




Not the best Cliff pic but it was the only one with all of us.


I hope that these pics inspire more of you to come and visit us!

We also saw lots of old castles. One, Bunratty Castle, has been totally restored and is surrounded by a little park that shows how castle life was like way back when. Here is a picture there...no castle just a view:

Me and a cute 4 months pregnant Lizzy.

Here is a random Sunday afternoon pic:

Like father like son

Wow, Easton has gotten so big! He is so cute. Also, those amazing pictures make me want to kidnap Dave and come and visit. Hopefully we'll be able to see your place in Ireland before you guys leave. We miss you guys.
