Guess Who Came To Visit?!

In November we had such a treat. My mother-in-law, Janet Sullivan, came to visit! It was not only her first trip to Europe, but her first time outside of the USA. Her heritage is all Irish, so this was a bit of a dream come true for her.

She flew into Shannon Airport which is 1 1/2 hours from Cork. It was a gorgeous, sunny day, which you don't always get in Ireland, so on the spur of the moment we decided to do some sight seeing and took her to County Kerry to see where her Grandfather was from.

We drove to the town of Kenmare where her Grandfather Jeremiah O'Neill was from and were able to show her the house where he was born and raised - at least what is left of it. The roof is gone but the old stone walls are still standing. It was remarkable to see.

 

Janet was here for Thanksgiving and Carly, Desmond and Jason were able to come too! This was her first chance to meet her 1st great grandson.
