Fun fact about me: I spent my 14th birthday in Dublin, Ireland on a student ambassador trip with 40 other kids from Alabama. I had the opportunity to stay in the home of a family with children that were close to my own age for a few days and familiarize myself with bits and pieces of their culture that you can only experience first hand. While the terrain of Ireland wasn’t as green as I had dreamed it would be, it was stunningly beautiful nonetheless. I will say that many of the people were a bit more fiery in nature than what I was accustomed to, but they were welcoming and gave me memories I’ll never forget!St. Patrick's Day Sugar Cookies…

Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day at school as a kid was always so much fun. The teacher would usually share a little bit about the history of St. Patrick’s day, and it’d always be followed by doing some sort of fun DIY project or snack craft for us all to dig in to. The first thing the other children did when you got to school was to check and make sure you had at least a speck of green on your some where, because they definitely had their “pinchers” ready and were hoping to find someone to pinch! 😉

When I was 13 years old, I packed my bags and boarded a plane with 30 other teenagers and 4 adults and headed straight for Europe. I spent nearly an entire month exploring England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. It was absolutely the trip of a lifetime, and I still have many friends from that trip that I keep in contact with. One of the most special instances during that trip was spending my 14th birthday walking down O’Connell street, shopping at all sorts of little fun stores and boutiques. It was a blast! I especially loved being able to see Ireland with my own eyes and experience their culture and learn much about their history.
