Wedding Bells in the Glens

Jimmy and Fionnuala's wedding was absolutely amazing! We had such a good time!

Fionnuala & Jimmy

Karl was the wedding car driver, and bought a chauffeur's cap just for the part. He also decided to get kitted out with black leather gloves and his sunglasses, in the words of his brother, he looked like a stripper! See for yourself.

Without knowing it, the girls all decided to wear black for the big day, and as a result we were called the Graham Divas for the rest of the day, and most of yesterday.

After the ceremony, I was instructed to jump into the wedding car with Karl, Jimmy & Finn, and we went up to the school where Jimmy & Finn met, for their professional wedding shoot, its was so romantic! After about 2 hrs we headed up to the reception venue.

At your service ma'am

Happy couple

We all stayed over at the hotel, which turned out to be a pretty good idea. Not many people were able to walk, let alone drive home! The music was awesome! They had an Irish band, and the music that was played all had a bit of an Irish spin to it. The dance floor was hardly empty at all. We called it a night at around 1:30am, while some of the other cousin's didn't go to bed at all!

The Grahams

Yesterday after we all got back, there was a Graham soccer match: the under 27yr olds vs the over 27 yrs olds.

Awesome view of the glen

Where's the ball?!

Team GRAHAM

It was so much fun to sit in the sun and watch the guys chasing after a ball. Afterwards, we ordered pizza for supper, and people started making their way back to Belfast for work this week. We have another cousin's wedding this Saturday, so I'm gonna make sure I have enough sleep this week.

Went back to sleep for 2 hours after Karl left for his first day at work, and then went for a 10.7km walk! I did not intend for it to be so long, but I think I missed the first road and went all the way to the coast. Had my ipod with me though, and comfortable shoes, so it was just me, the music, the cows and the sheep :) Was really beautiful though, going to try do it 2/3 times a week and will take more photos.

Working away on my corrections for my thesis, and hope to have it all sorted by the end of next week. Thought that today might be difficult with Larl being at work etc, but its actually turned out to be a great day, and I can't believe its already after 3pm! Well, I need to finish my discussion chapter, before we hit the local pub for a, wait-for-it, PUB QUIZ tonight :)
