On Wed. we went to the Blarney Castle. Had we known what a trek it would be, we probably wouldn't have climbed all the narrow, slick stairs to get to the top to be pounded by wind and rain just so Froggie could kiss the Blarney Stone...but we did! Still, it was pretty cool!
Connor was not happy about going to Blarney Castle. Also, his head got "bumped" while we were in the dungeon of the castle. (Notice I laid no blame for the bump.)
Connor insisted that I feed him while in line to get to the Blarney Stone. We just happened to stop in the kitchen for a feeding. My poor boobs have been out all over Ireland!
Unfortunately we had a few minor incidents with the car while in Ireland. Dave used the left-side rear view mirror to high five a couple other cars. No major damage and luckily we had taken the insurance on the rental.
We went to a cute little harbor town, Kinsale. We had a great lunch and walked around the town.
On Thursday we met Dave's former co-worker Tim and his wife Jacqui(Jackie). Ironically , Tim spent the week in the US and had just flown in that morning. We had a great time getting to know them and can't wait to see them again.
Connor tried yogurt for the first time. He loves it!
Matt's Dad, Bernie. Connor was mesmerized by his beard. Hopefully this was good training for the Santa pictures to come!
On Friday morning, the owner took us on a tour of the tower. It was very cool!
This picture is for Grandma and Grandpa Kostusiak. They bought him this sweatshirt last year.
Connor dressed for the wedding. Thanks Aiden for letting us borrow some clothes.
Lydia
The ceremony had to be in the front room because it was raining. Sorry Aunt Lydia!
Great-Aunt Nancy
Mini Me
The happy couple!

Connor didn't make it through the reception. I'm not sure how he managed to sleep through all the noise, but he did!We had a great time in Ireland. We wish we'd had more time and cannot wait to go back and see all the things that we missed!
