Irish Blossoms

I know what you're thinking: "How in the world does Jonathan continue to keep us entertained almost a WEEK after they've gotten back from their trip? He's a magician!"


Well, as you wait for the dramatic conclusion to our glorious tale, I thought I would post some pretty flower pictures from Ireland, because we have lots... and because I can. Enjoy! (Or endure, if you're not a fan.)















My friend, Erin O'Leary called this an "amazing picture," so I had to include it again, even though I already posted it once.





















An unusual bouquet

With so many flowers, it's a shame we didn't see calla lillies, right? I mean, being Grandma's favorite flower and all. WRONG! Actually, calla lillies practically grow like weeds. There was a stretch at the end of our trip, staying in a different B&B every night where Grandma consistently had a view of a gardenful of calla lillies from her seat at the breakfast table.

We even saw shiny (AKA ugly) calla lillies!

Credit where it's due: about half of these pictures were taken by my parents, not me. And half of what's left were taken by Libby. So, basically, I took a couple of them.
It's understandable that you're getting anxious. But rest assured that the final few entries are on their way!
