Saige's Adventure on A California Seaside (Part 5. of All of Kit) (June 2016)

Hullo friends! For today's Kit themed photo-shoot we're throwing it back almost two years (whattt) to when my family got to visit some friends in CA. During the holiday, we stayed a few nights in a beach town, proving to be an excellent time for Kit's original pyjamas, which are sailor themed. Enjoy!
Mini Millie was Saige's companion on the adventure.
We also noticed that in the bedroom where we were staying--there was a stack of PLEASANT COMPANY books. *Cough* I was a little excited about them, so of course we took a picture with them.
Doesn't this look like an old picture? =)
I love love love this picture.
There was a big rock-- 
 There's a picture of my sisters and me on it to give you an idea of the size.
That's all for today's post. Which was your favourite picture? Do you prefer stone or sand beaches?

CW Concert: Voices of Angels Tour (05-14-17)

Hullo everyone! This post is a tad bit late, but heh, what can I say, lots of things, stressful things, have been happening. Here are the pictures from the Celtic Woman concert back on Mother's Day. It was a pleasant and much needed surprise to get tickets. :)
Unlike last time we went, we headed to Biloxi MS instead of NOLA. Apparently NOLA didn't sell enough tickets or something. Oh well.
They had a screen with a slideshow playing through the entire show, very unlike anything they're used in the past.
No video, but we were allowed to take no-flash pictures. So here are these.
Did I mention that since so few tickets sold, we were moved up many many seat rows? Yep, that was cool.
Dulaman. (Mairead Carlin)
Eabha McMahon. <3
Anthony Byrne.
'Kesh Inn' This one was very fun! And I recognised several pieces.
Nil Sen La
Teir Abhaile Riu.
For the Love of A Princess: Tara McNeill
She was lovely. =)
Walk Beside Me.
Ray Fean.
Ave Maria
Then afterwards we got to meet two of the lovely choir boys. Ronan (Who is married to MC), and Carl. They were great!
Then it was time to head home.
But as we were leaving the coast, the sun was setting--it was almost as nice of a sunset as the ones at Destin--but no quite.
Well that's all I have to share. If you have a chance to go see 'Voices of Angels' you by golly should. It was amazing, and made me miss Ireland even more, (I know I've never been, shh) and it'll make you truly appreciate Celtic music. Here's a link to the rest of their tour. They're nearly finished though. Alrighty, well, I'll be back with another Photo-shoot soon. Have a good day!

Caroline-Rose Goes On An Adventure--Day 1 & 2 (02-25-26-17)

Hullo Ducklings, I hope you are all well. I've got a small case of wanderlust and spring fever, but other than that, I'm doing fine. Over the weekend, my parents surprised us kids with a holiday to the beach for my sister's birthday. I'd like to share with you the first part of the trip, today. The second half will be up soon too, but since tomorrow's Marie's b-day, we'll see what happens. I hope you enjoy!
(August 2016^)
Picking which doll would could with me was probably the hardest part, but I ended up choosing Caroline-Rose after much discussion with my mum and sisters. Caroline has never really travelled with me, other than to Mississippi, once. So I wasn't sure how well this would go. Let's just say, she's a heavy packer, and a talkative roommate.

~Packing~
Caroline-Rose decided to pack her car-bag with the following:
Ania's laptop, flip flops, Ania's ukulele, little Rose, and Kit's camera.
A beauty has to remember to bring her hair tools, brush, spritz bottle, and pencil for curling.
Her travel outfit consists of:
Saige's Tunic-outfit White Jeans,
Black flats from Fall for Overalls OG Set
Yellow top from OG's Plaid to Be Here Set.
Her toiletry bag consists of:
Lipstick, sunscreen, toothbrush, toothpaste.
I found the best way to pack big sets such as Samantha's PC swimsuit is to seal them folded in a Ziploc, they take up less space this way. Just a quick tip.
Her jewelry.
I ended up not bringing everything in these pictures, my suitcase filled very quickly, so we had to leave some things home. XD
After everything was packed and loaded, it was time for Caroline to climb into my backpack for the 6 hour drive.
After getting stuck in traffic in Alabama, we finally crossed the line into Florida.
Then we stopped in Pensacola for lunch, the Jason's there was really nice, and they were very quick with the service.
Shadows...
Bay bridge.
~Yay! Beach~
Finally we made it to our lake villa, unpacked and headed down to the beach to catch the awesome sunset.

~Day 2!~
We got down to the beach around 6:30, right after sunrise.
The light was sparkling on the water like a spotlight.
This is the little room Jess and I were sharing, it was yellow with blue and green accents, an adorable gable room.
Stairs. 
Caroline's second day outfit.
 
I also re-curled her hair.
The view from our window.

Did I mention that the house's back patio gave you an excellent view of the golf course, this is the lake by the green 
Sunset. <3
Caroline is so stinking cute in Emily's pjs.
Caroline-Rose brought her diary that she got for Christmas to write her adventures down in on the trip.
Time to brush our teeth.

Then it was time to head back upstairs for bed.
Good night!

Thanks for reading! The second day didn't have much activity, but the third day--well, the next post will be more full of interesting things, so stay close. Does your family have a specific beach or destination place that you prefer over others? Which ones more relaxing? Beach or Mountains?
Thanks again!
