Weekend Recap

Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Here is a look into what our weekend looked like:
 Dublin in Rainbows + Sunsets
 We went to the International Craft Beer Fest on Friday with a group of friends.
Forest Avenue which has been rated one of the best new restaurants in Dublin. I concur.
Oh... and did I mention I was taking French. So hard. I've resorted back to flashcards.
And my French so far is about as jumbled as those cards. Eek!

Today I am spending the day taking my cousin around Dublin! She is in town for work and I couldn't be more excited to see her! Makes for a great start to the week.

    Gorgeous photos of the rainbow and sunset!! Super jealous about that craft beer fest! I took French in college and I'm lucky to remember what I do now. Stick with it, its a beautiful language! The SpeakEasy French app is really helpful and there are some conjugation apps out there that help too!
