Ciara loves playing and I think she has a real infectious laugh.

Ciara's 2nd Birthday
We had Ciara's 2nd birthday today and she had a ball.
She really enjoyed the fuss about her and the weather was good we had a bouncy castle and all the usual grub.
We didn't have a huge crowd as most of the Doyle's are on holidays and as we're going to Cian's birthday tomorrow we told the Dublin wing of the clan to stay put and we'll see them tomorrow.
Here's a few shots and the "Happy Birthday" to get a flavour of the day.

Holiday in Center Parcs Update
I thought a quick video of the lads in action in one of the play grounds would be nice.
Holiday in Center Parcs
We are just back from our Holiday in Centre Parcs in Longleat.
The kids loved it and it really is set up for kids. The weather wasn't great but we still made the best of it.
The Longleat site is very hilly and the bikes made for good exercise especially with me dragging a trailer for Aine and Ciara and Shelly with a tagalong for Lorcan. Ciara was a little nervous in the pool but enjoyed the jaquzzi. The lads went on everything all the slides and wave pools etc.
Lorcan finally got a chance to go fishing with me and we caught 2 carp (wasn't too difficult as there was 1200 in the small lake) had a bit of an issue getting hooks out but Lorcan loved it. Aine had her hair braided and Lorcan did the rock climbing.
We also went to Longleat house and safari park which was great. We were driving around the safari park through the Monkey part and they just attacked all the cars nearly everyone lost their ariel and we had a good laugh until they descended on us. Ripped two strips off our car and terrified Aine. I think she thought they were going to make it in. Longleat house is great though best playground I've ever seen and there was mini trains and pet zoo (Lorcan held a Snake and a Tarantula) maze etc
Michelle and Declan and the lads seemed to enjoy it too.
Here's some photos to enjoy.
There was Ducks and Squirrels eveywhere.
Group shot.
They might look lovable but intelligent rats I say.
Waiting for a swim.

Lady's waiting for the pack horse (me) to carry them home.
Ciara and Lorcan especially loved the beach.
Aine wanted a photo with her braid.
