This past weekend was so busy in our house it went past in a blur.
Our Teen headed off on Saturday morning to a youth festival in Co Longford which was great 'craic' altogether. I'm still catching up on all the gossip from that.
Our Inbetweener was busy playing gaelic and hurling on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and I was helping out at the Relay for Life event on Saturday and Sunday.
We did manage to squeeze in some time together on Saturday morning minus our Teen when we went to the Northwest Garden Show which is held in Castlefinn not far from where we live.
It was a lovely morning spent wandering around the show gardens, farmers market, exhibitors stalls and craft stalls.
It's encouraging to see a local event like this being so well supported by the local community and it's great to find exhibitors of lovely crafts and food producers that you wouldn't otherwise have known about.
There was so much to take in but here are some of my favourite photos, especially the one of our Inbetweener who has a Golden Eagle planted on head.
It was amazing to get up close and personal with such a beautiful creature.

These are some photos of The White House Garden which was created by a number of Irish Gardeners including Diarmuid Gavin.
Even though the garden is not fully completed you can see that it will be stunning and great asset to have here in Donegal once it's fully completed.

The traditional stone walled garden is a symbol of our heritage and the close links held with America down through the years.
All in all we had a busy but great weekend.
Hope yours was just as good xx
