WOW!




I can't believe we thought he was so cool?! Personally, I was a Zach fan, but I probably thought these moves were the coolest! I saw this video on a friend's blog. Jake and I were laughing so hard when we saw it, I just had to post it too!! It's a goodie!!

~Ireland~

Our last stop was Ireland!! Ireland was my favorite! Our first night there we stayed at the Ashford Castle! It was unbelievable!! It was built in 1228! The castle and the grounds were beautiful! We also had our best dinner at the Castle! It was a night none of us will ever forget!



The four of us took a boat out on the Lough Corrib, the 2nd largest lake in Ireland!
Jake and his dad were able to play golf at 2 of the world's top golf courses! Many of the holes ran along the Atlantic Ocean!
The Cliffs of Moher were beyond beautiful! They were huge!
Thanks for an amazing adventure that Jake and I will never forget!

When can we go back!?

Jake and I had the awesome oppurtunity to go to Europe for a week with Jake's parents! We were in London for two days, Stratford-upon-Avon (a little town 2 hours outside of London) for a day, Paris for a day, and Ireland for 3 days! It was amazing!

We first went to London and this is on the bridge in front of the London Eye and our hotel! In London, we saw and toured Big Ben, Parliment, Buckingham Palace, Tower Bridge, Westminster Abbey, London Tower, and much more!
Thames river in London
In the London Eye, an amazing view of London!
Warwick Castle, London. We were able to walk around and go through Warwick castle. It was beautiful! We saw Madama Trudeaus wax museum, which was kinda scary how real the people looked!

Next we went to Paris, France! In Paris we went through the Louvre, Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower!
Our girl Mona!
Seeing the Eiffel Tower was one of the highlights of the trip! It was so much bigger than we could've imagined!!! We were able to go all the way to the top! You could see all of Paris! We were lucky enough to also be able to see it at night! It was breathtaking!

13.1 miles....been there, done that!

Jake and I ran in the Indianapolis Mini Marathon this past weekend! We ran it with my dad, brother Greg, sis-in-law Steph, Steph's brother and his wife, and a few friends! Jake and I both met our time goals and had fun doing it! It was an unbelievable experience and we can't wait for next year!
Downtown before the race! It's still dark out! What are we thinking!?
The starting line before the race....30,000 runners! It's the largest half marathon in the U.S. After the race....13.1 miles before 9 am and we're still smiling!

Finally!!!

Jake and I are finally in the blogging club! We are coming up on our 3 year anniversary and have had so many memorable moments and are excited to share with our family and friends our life happenings! Enjoy!
