Wedding Invites, All things Agricultural & Come on the Yella Bellies

Today is a fab day for loads of reasons.
1. I finished my first wedding invite order and am ready to deliver it.
2. Wexford Minor Hurlers drew with Dublin in Croke Park
3. Wexford Senior Hurlers beat Dublin today in Croke Park

But best of all

4. WEXFORD SENIOR FOOTBALLERS BEAT LAOIS TO MAKE IT TO THEIR FIRST LEINSTER FINAL SINCE THE 1950s

The joy, was only sorry I wasn't there to see it, had to make do with TV3 coverage and patchy coverage over the net of the hurling. I'm not a total GAA freak, I couldnt tell you who played half back for wexford in 1995 but I am proud of my county and I do love going to matches, all though they are far and few between now since we moved to Galway and had Ruairi, it really is too far to travel for a game, never mind the expense and if we brought Ruairai you could be garunteed that we would have to leave after 10 mins cos he wouldn't like the noise.


The wedding invites have been taking up most of my time lately, so blog and chat forums lose out unfortunately. I'm thrilled with myself today though that I have finished off the first order, the second order i have already started but will be working on it full time now! Hopefully these to orders will get a few others for me too. The only card making I've been doing is for orders and they tend to be the same at the moment, all wedding ones! Good job I adore weddings and all things wedding!

The last few weeks have seen us go to the County Show in Clarinbridge, Ruairi loved the show jumping - horseys jumping up and down, and all the sticks fall down! He loved the bouncy castle and icecream more though. Alan took some really cool photos of the show jumping, I'll post some pictures later, I'll put up some of his and of mine so you can see the difference!

On Friday evening after work we went to Farmfest '08 in athenry. Alan and ruairi went early in the afternoon and had sourced all the free lollipops by the time I got there. It was a really great show, and best of all I got to meet one of the Craft Supplies ladies in real life! Hello Helen aka Mayo Mom, she had the coolest stand at the show with her friend, they had loads of really lovely cards and bits and pieces. I bought a lovely blue angel phone charm from Helen, it is gorgeous. I also introduced her to Alan, just to prove to him that all you ladies are real, and not in my head.

The next few weeks are pretty busy for me again travel wise, I've to go to Portlaoise on Tuesday, to Dublin for the weekend to see BOYZONE!, the following weekend I'm down home to deposit Ruairi with his grannies so Alan and I can head off to Barcelona, Alan has a conference, and I'm tagging along,it's a beautiful city and I wont mind one bit exploring it again. Then we arrive back in Ireland on the friday and my parents, granny and neice are coming up to Galway that weekend to come and see Daniel O'Donnell in Salthill......... I'm going too for my sins - Alan "kindly" offered to baby sit that night! Phew I'm exhausted typing this, never mind doing it all!

Considering yesterday was the longest day, I reckon I'll be back to blog again just before Christmas............. sure it's only around the corner now ! ! !
