{Ireland} Travel Tuesday #2

Ireland

I am so excited about this weeks Travel Tuesday!!!! This is one of my Favorite places in the world!!!! I will never forget the time I spent in Ireland!!!! It is such an amazing place. Back in March 2005 my family and I had the pleasure of visiting. My Oldest at the time was only 9 months old. I can't wait to go again one day and bring both kids so they can enjoy the beauty of the land. Dingle, Ireland was our "home base" we traveled around a bit and stayed in Dublin, Ireland for St. Patrick's Day! All I can say is AMAZING experience!!!! I had a hard time picking which images to add for this blog so rest assure I will be featuring Ireland again for Travel Tuesday!
