Hey guys and gals!!
I know I haven't posted in a while now....but here are a few updates!!
At this very minute I am over in NJ with the love of my life!!
I had arranged for my parents and sister to come with me for my Dads 50th....I flew them all out First Class on the flight!! It was amazing and they loved it!! Something they really enjoyed and they for sure deserved it!!
My family were over for just 4 days....wish it had of been a little longer because I know they love coming over here!! I am here for another week and of course I am so busy while I am here...I have loads to do!!
On the first day here, Thursday, my parents went and stayed my Uncle and his family and my sister came with me to stay with Richard. we all had a great time!
Friday my parents and sister met all the in-laws!! Was a good evening and we all went out for dinner! They got to talk and eat together which was nice! Sadly they don't get the opportunity to meet up on a regular basis so the next meeting will be Richard and I's wedding!! :0)
Oh during the day on Friday my parents, sis, Richard and I all went into NYC and had ablast!! Even though it rained all day long that didn't stop us going shopping and enjoying ourselves!!!
Saturday I went with my Mom, Sister, Aunt and 2 Sister in-laws to Davids Bridal to find my wedding dress and Guess what???? WE FOUND THE ONE!!!! I knew as soon as I put it on me and then when everyone seen it and cried that it was the perfect dress!! I am so looking forward to wearing it all day on the wedding day!!! Exciting!!
Saturday night....Laura (my sister) and I arranged for us and our American family members to all go out for dinner as a Birthday treat for my dad!! Was great fun and I know Dad really enjoyed himself!!
We all went back to my Uncles house for some Birthday Cake and it was sooooo good!! I love cake!!
Sunday, my parents went and did a few things with my Uncle and Aunt! My sister and I went and got our nails done with my sister in-law Tina....was great fun and of course we now have cute nails!
Then we started to get ready to get them to the airport for the trip home!! Here was a fun part of the day! As I am a staff member of Continental....my family travel on a standby list and we checked the listing for the flight on the Saturday and it was open, meaning there were seating for them to get back to Dublin....where the car was parked!!
Of course Sunday I log on to double check everything is fine and wouldn't you know...the flight is oversold!!! So we had to change up everything and send them to another airport in N.Ireland! Thank the Lord for being so great....they say a guy from our Church back home who said he would give them a ride home because of course our car is in Dublin which is about 2 hours away from the airport they now had to fly into!! haha
Poor mom and dad had to drive down in my moms car to collect the other car and drive it back up home again!!
Over all though the trip was amazing and hopefully one we will all remember for a very long time!! Pictures will be posted soon..I promise!

Had the BEST time ever...
Being back in NJ this time I had to say was the BEST trip in a long time!! Im not saying that every other trip has been awful....they have been good also but this trip just ROCKED!!!! :0)
Richard and I just did a whole bunch of fun things. Plus I also got to spend a whole lot of time wit his family and the people he is closest to within his church.
Just a few things that made my time so great...
Richard - well that one was obvious!! haha....we got to spend a lot of time together even with him working his usual days! We were able to be 'normal' the way it used to be. Go on our movie date nights, go get the grocery shopping, do laundry....I know most of that doesnt sounds fun but we enjoy it as long as we do it all together! :0)
We also got to go to Church together which was really good. I met people who knew his Father when he was alive and they joked about Richard and how he was as a child! Then we also went to Richards church where he considered most people members of his own family. It was nice to meet the people from both churches and see how much Richard is loved by so many people!
NYC - Everytime Richard and I go into the city we have a good laugh and this time was no exception! We went to the Charmin restrooms in Times Square and oh boy is that an experience on its own....check out the webpage: http://www.charmin.com/en_US/enjoy-the-go/index.php
This was hilerious! Here is one picture we got taken of us in one of the photo op areas:
Yeah so as you can see, we DO love to joke around!!! ha-ha
Family - Because Richard was working his usual schedule, I spent a lot of time with his sister Tina who is amazing! Awilda, Richards mom who is also amazing...really this woman is the best...I could not have asked for a better mother-in-law!
Also Richards brother Steven who is adorable and his other brother Jun who is not adorable but is a great help with us. He is always willing to help us out when he can and is also very funny...especially when he trys to immitate my accent!! Jun's wife was also there and she is really nice, she loves to have a good laugh which is my book is great!!!
All the family members made me feel so at home this trip and I dont know if it was because it was Thanksgiving or what it was....but this trip I just felt like I was actualy a member of the family! It was so nice to feel that.....they have always included me in family occasions and have always tried to involve me in many events. But this time just felt different.
When I said my good-bye I cried a lot with everyone, which I dont usually do! I mean that in the nicest possible way....but this time I actually couldnt control my tears! :0( Was so sad!
Thanksgiving - I have had Thanksgiving before but this was the first FAMILY thanksgiving of many to come I know! It was a great day, MIL asked me to make a dessert, which was no problem....I made the cookie log! Everyone LOVED the log and of course now every year will be the dish waiting after the main course!! lol
After dinner we played a board game which like any family got very competitive and was so funny!!
Future plans - Richard and I committed to a lot of future plans, which we are very excited about and praying very hard to achieve!
I am sure there were so many more things that made my trip awesome, but these were the main things that spring to mind right now! They also seem the most important out of them all!
Here is a picture which I love from this trip and already have in a frame!!

In NJ and in love!
I arrived on Monday afternoon and I am having a ball already!
Monday when I arrived, Richard lost his cell but thankfully he was able to find me at the airport sitting where I always sit!! :0)
So we came home and got a few things unpacked....I had a few gifts for him and a few things for his mom that I wanted his opinion on.
Then we went to his mom's house for dinner and to just chill for a while. I love her cooking and of course this time was no different...yummy!!!
Tuesday Richard and I got up at 6am to go and meet the guy who found Richards cell.....was really good of him to give it back and to arrange to meet us! Thankfully got the phone back and no harm done!
Then we went for a long walk and stopped at a small diner for our breakfast! Was such a nice winters day.....cold but the sun was shining so was nice to walk hand in hand around the city.
Richard mom asked me to come over for my dinner last night and then I babysat for her while she went to my little brother-in-laws school. Then I chilled with my sister and brother in law watching 'My sisters keeper'......such a sad movie!
Now today I am chilling in the house because Richard is working until 10pm. Then we are going to go and do some grocery shopping! I know I know.....after 10pm I hear you say 'Are you crazy!?'.......well its the only time that we can go and get it done because he works.
Any who....other than the above nothing exciting over here. I am looking forward to Thanksgiving and having the big family dinner together! Will be great!
Well I will keep you all updated on my little world as things happen over here!!

Airport life!
I really do love my job!!
I know some days I could walk out of work and hate the place and wish I never had t go back (dramatic I know!!) and there are days where I just love my job!
Usually it would take for me to meet someone famous or someone who has been super nice to me!! But today none of that happened.....yes there were a few really nice people but today was just a normal day!
I guess what I love about my job is that it never has one day the same as the one before!! Every single day produces something different!! Its great!
Thank you Lord for guiding me towards getting back into the airport life!!! Its great!

My amazing boyfriend who I LOVE so much got the family together for a very nice Birthday dinner and some AMAZING ice cream cake!!! Ohhhh the cake was amazing! He is so thoughtful....one of the qualities I love about him!
Me eating the cake....I could have eaten the WHOLE thing!!!!
While I stuffed my face with cake..Richard looked after Fiona!
Us outfor dinner at the Olive Garden. The food was amazing and the bread and salad they give before the meal....awww to die for!!!
Us in NYC at night!
We got a drawing done on the street in NYC.....it is good I think?!?!
We went to the Newark Museum and it was interesting. I enjoyed us spending the time together. We even got to dress up for a while!! Yes we are BIG kids!
Then of course no vacation would be complete without a goodbye picture....thankfully this one was before all the tears started! Ahhh I HATE goodbyes!! Its awful! But I am very thankful for the time we do get to spend together! It is always so special and memorable and I know we will have a whole bunch of stories to tell our Children and Grandchildren in years to come!!! ;0)

London Training...
Day one on London training course! lol
Its good...the hotel is super nice and I have a nice big bed to myself!!! Very quiet and the weather is very nice at the minute!
The training today was good....was interesting. We looked over the general history of CO airlines. It was cool seeing how it all started and hearing about the highs and lows of the company to date!
Sadly the downside is we will have homework each night....I feel like I have gone back about 10years!! Homework....I thought that word was never used again once you finished school!! lol
Its all good though....so far I'm a happy teddy bear!
Will get pics of the hotel room up possibly tomorrow
