This one's for you, Annessa!


So my mind started racing the other day. (mark, get set... oh no.)

I started thinking what I would do if I won a boat load of money. I quickly moved past all of the boring responsible stuff - mortgage, investing, college, etc. Then I started thinking fun.

This post will be the first in a series where I will gift extravagant, albeit imagninary, gifts upon my family and friends. Money and reality are no object. I can do whatever I want to do to make my loved ones happy! Remember, I'm thinking fun, not responsible.

If you are unhappy with your endowment, just let me know. 'Cause I can return it! (It doesn't really exist, right?)

So my first thoughts were with my sister Annessa and her family. I thought how I would love to send them to Ireland for a vacation. Annessa has always wanted to go there and I would be so excited if I could actually make that happen. Being a strawberry blonde beauty, doesn't she deserve to go to her ancestral homeland?


I would rent them a cottage in a beautiful scenic part of the "Emerald Isle". They could visit castles, the seaside and just take in the beautiful greenery. Here is the cottage you will be staying in. I went for traditional, rather than totally modern.


The Cottage, Glenview lodge.
Following are pictures of the kitchen and one of the bedrooms.

I hope you have as much fun imagining this vacation as I did!

That is so cool! I love it! I feel revived and renewed and best of all...loved! Thank you! I even got some ideas for how to decorate if I ever get my own house again - awesome! You know I love traditional rather than modern anyway! Gives me some ideas...
