Day of Birth

Birthday cupcakes from my mom. 
It was just an ok day. We spent the night getting things ready for my grandmother's funeral. It's so hard to believe that all of my grandparents have passed away around my birthday.
  • April 28, 2007 Scott  - We buried him on my birthday. A friend and I had a tripped to Dallas planned with tickets to a concert. She went on down and I flew out as soon as the service was over. I made it just in time for her to pick me up on her way to the venue.

It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...
