Here's my proof!

These pictures are for you Steph!....prove it?! Don't be so hasty!
So, I loved Ireland as a whole, but I especially liked Giants Causeway. There is a story behind it that makes it kind of fun. First let me explain the pictures a little better.
Basically the rocks start at the top of the hill and come down to the ocean just like steps. They go all the way down into the ocean and come back up in Scotland! Totally cool!
Well, the story goes like this:
There were two giants, one lived in Ireland and the other in Scotland. The giants were engaged and so during their engagement the guy giant used the causeway to walk across the ocean to visit his future bride!
I was amazed to see this! The individual stones all placed perfectly on top of eachother to make perfect and distinct columns. Honestly, I don't understand how it was done!
So, while Zach and I were walking down and I was marveling at this site and said to him "Heavenly Father had to have had so much fun creating this earth! What creativity!"
I really liked walking down to it, one, because I love walking and two, because it really was so pretty the whole time! I love to hear the waves crashing against the rocks and such. So lovely!

I loved Giants Causeway!

Jet Lag....

Oh my, well it has been a while since I wrote last and some might wonder why.
Well, we ventured across the Atlantic to IRELAND!
So, I have only be to Tiawana and have never had a passport and all the sudden, bam! IRELAND! Needless to say, I was really excited to go! We had a fabulous time!
Now, we suffer from jet lag. :) Lovely as it is, it is so worth it!
The laundry is up to my ears and the kids are throwing up and so tired. We all wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning thinking we slept in! (In Ireland it is 10 or 11 in the morning!) Oh the joy of adjusting!
As the week goes on, I will post pictures and stories. What a beautiful place!
So yeah, I'm back! :) I missed you too! :) :)
