I know I'm biased but aren't these just the cutest wee pictures of Aaron? @littlerascalsbabyphotography took them to celebrate his first birthday which was over a month ago. I just didnt want to be celebrating at the time but the best thing about babies they don't know what day of the week it is lol. I'm delighted with these, Aaron had a ball he laughed and smiled the whole time as Lynn was super fun and friendly with him. If your around Donegal/Derry I highly recommend Little Rascals she is always ahead of trends, super fun and her photos are just brilliant. . . . #babyphotos #babyphotography #babyphotoshoot #babymodel #firstbirthdayphotoshoot #firstbirthday #boysphotography #donegal #derry #photos #memories #photographer #littlerascals #lovethem #hotairballoon #vintagecar #blueeyesblondehair #babiesofinstagram #irishbaby #irish #babyoftheday

Peeking through the bramble bushes you'll see a newly dashed extension, a few pink bales and a huge field full of corn🌾❤ Wonder who could live in a house like this😂 . . . #throughthekeyhole #home #countryhouse #extension #farmhouse #archedwindow #pinkbales #cornfield #irishselfbuild #selfbuildireland #orangery #myhome #farmireland #greenfields #selfbuild #countrycottage #bunaglow #realhomesofinsta #instahome

Ring ring!!! Hi pet! Hi mammy, what’s the craic? Mammy do you know how to? Mammy will you? Mammy guess what? These are the beginnings of majority of phone calls I made to my mum every single day. Maybe two or three times a day too. She always answered "Hi Pet" or "Yes Jade" apart from when she was at bingo and even then she would pick up the odd day. Always there on the other end of the call. To answer and to talk to. Since she died two weeks ago I’ve gone to pick up the phone several times a day to call her and I get so frustrated, cause I know she won't ever answer, ever again. For 33 years she has been my go to, my number one for everything. Anything I needed, absolutely anything she was the first port of call. Mammy pushed me through everything she was my motivation to get out of bed for school during my troubled teenage years. She pushed me through college, she guided me throughout my first pregnancy, my second, third and fourth. She reared my first baby when I was tired. She sewed a dress when it was too long, heck she would make me a dress if I needed it. Man she would do anything and only when I became a mother I realised why she did all that. She encouraged me to take chances, she was my number one supporter for everything I ever did. When I wrote stories and poems, she was always so proud! She allowed me to express my inner interior designer from I was a teenager, she let me paint and upcycle everything in the house. She was so cool, she allowed all my friends to hang out with the music blaring. Nothing would seem to much hassle. She was the wildest craic, she was always smiling and laughing. If you went to the shop she would stand chatting for ages. She was open, honest and very outgoing. She wouldn't mince her words and if you didn't look good in something she would soon let you know. Then if you did good she would scream it from the roof top. She worried, always worried where we ok and where we safe. Anytime we'd go on holidays you would have to check in night and day. She listened, she scolded, she held my hand when I was scared. She hugged me when I was sad, reassured me when I needed it. Continued in the comments❤

We got #pinkbales 😁💗 It was like the movies here during baling, kids from everywhere waiting to see the pink bales and cars driving past slowing down, honking😂 I'm delighted, I think they are so cute, what you think? Makes a change from boring ugly black bales lol plus the money from the wrap goes to @breastcancerireland so it's a win win🚜💗 . . #balewatch #bales #roundbales #sillage #farming #farmlife #irishfarm #farmingireland #pinkbale #farmblog #farmingblog #pink #happygirls #farmgirls #farmfamily #donegalfarm #johndeere #newholland #ruralireland #farmlifeireland #irishfarming #farmkids #farmfamily #farmlife #soexciting #dairygoldcoop #farmingweekly #silage2019

I'm between step 3 and 5 today. I want to do it, how do I do it and I'll try to do it. I signed myself up to walk a marathon my way in July with @irishcancersociety in memory of my mum who passed away just last week💔 My sisters and I looked after mum at home, right up to her final day and we received wonderful help from the Irish cancer society and the Donegal Hospice in caring for her and looking after her, making sure she was comfortable and pain free. It was tough going and we wouldn't have been able to do it, if it wasn't for these two wonderful charity's. So myself and the kids are going to walk a mile or two everyday, in remembrance of the most wonderful woman in our life. I've already raised almost €200 out of the €250 target. I will be sharing my progress and all here and Facebook. If you would like to sponsor me you can via the link in my bio. Every little helps. I never fully realised the nature of both charities until we needed them and now we will be forever grateful for their support. . . . #charity #irishcancersociety #marathonmyway #marathonjuly #irishcancer #cancersucks #charity #donegalhospice #supersupport #cancercharity #myfirstmarathon #marathoninamonth #helpingothers #raisingawareness #kickcancersass #supportcharity
