Well here we are into our first week home after Ireland and we have had some jetlagging to be sure. Keep praying for our house sale as it will not be final until May 8. Also pray all goes well for our house purchase in Ireland. Here is a pic of me and my new baby Mungo. Here is a pic of his mommy and what he will look like when he grows out his baby coat.
We were able to say to the breeder that we wanted the puppy because we now have a yard. The breeder said she would care for Mungo until we get there permanently. We were lucky because she only had one left.This was one of many things that we had happen that we called God Things. The others were that Joe had the whole week off of work because the university was preparing for exams. We did not know this when we booked the flights. In Ireland you only have one real estate agent. The one the house is listed with so, you have no one to show you around and take you from house to house, that is where Joe came in, he was a God send and definatly a God Thing. We would have literaly been lost without him. The other God thing was how we bought our house. In Ireland you place an offer on a house above the asking price and wait to see if someone out bids you. This can go on for months, until the seller feels he is satisfied or can get no more. People laughed at us when we said we were there to buy a house in ten days. We just didn't know any better! The house we put an offer on had one other offer but when the owner was told what we were moving to Ireland to do, he wanted us to have the house and would take no more offers. A God Thing. Here is are a few pics of us enjoying the Munster vs Leinster rugby game with Joe and Dawn French. Take a good look at the pic of the tv screen, I got the player sliding across the line for the winning try for Munster, our team(my new sport to watch). Check out our rugby shirts. Here is the awsome couple we stayed with called Garry and Peggy. They were very hospitable. The weather was nice,only one umbrella day and at least 6 sunny days. Well time to continue with life in Canada. Right so!
