Hi!

Hello there...

Well, it's late Sunday night and Niall and I just got done with a nice Skype chat with the folks in SB.  Not going to write too much here now, but will share more later this week.  We had a great weekend with Marie and the kids, although I will say I didn't take one photo.  :(  Lucy had her camera some of the time though... so maybe I will get some from her to share later.  It was lovely to show them Belfast and a bit of our new life here.  It is still funny to think how lucky I got with my aupair job in Bruff!  And crazy that it's been almost five years since I first went to live with the Noonan family...

Forgot that I actually have ONE photo from this weekend on my phone.  Here's me and Lucy trying on some hats :)



Some other random news:  Niall sprained his ankle playing volleyball a week ago so that's been a bit of a bummer.  :/  He was on crutches for a few days but has been limping around without them since the start of this weekend.  He did his best to keep up with Bob and Ben!

The first night it happened, it looked like a tennis ball had been glued to Niall's ankle!  The swelling has gone down so it's just a bit black and blue now.

Other than that, not too much has changed.  I am still constantly freezing and it's still getting colder!  I had another volleyball game last week, we lost in 5 (15-13 in the fifth set!) to probably the hardest team in our league.  Not due for another match for another few weeks.  Niall has one on Friday but the chances of him being able to play aren't looking too good-- we'll see.

Right, it's going on 11:30 pm so I'll stop there.  Niall will probably be writing the next post, it's his turn-- so you can all get excited for that.  :)

Love you guys!


P.S....


I know it was over a week ago, but congrats to my studly Dad, brother-in-law, and sister for riding in the SB Century!  That's 100 miles of cycling, most of which are uphill... you guys are crazy.  Loved seeing the photos and wish I could have been there... next year maybe?!  xox
