Monkstown :)




We spent a wonderful day at Marianne and Robert's house yesterday :)
Kieran had just returned from Spain, so the kids were overjoyed to see him as well.
They live in an incredibly charming house in Monkstown - about 15 minutes outside of Dublin. Marianne cooked a wonderful vegetarian meal :) and made a delicious cake that she and Ava decorated together. Marianne is a cake expert now - she and Patrick made the wedding cake together...can't wait to see it! We went for a walk into Don Loughre and along the coast.
The kids found sea glass - of course! We then went back to their house to warm up with a cup of tea and the delicious cake! We stayed so long that everyone got hungry again, so Ava suggested making soup. Marianne and Avaset to work making "Ava's Monkstown Soup" - again a fantastic meal! Being at their house and enjoying the day together was such a great treat as we know it will soon be crazy with all of the other family members arriving and the preparations for the wedding. Today, the zoo - Ava's choice :)!
