Philp Family: Ireland in August
http://philpfamily.blogspot.com/2011/09/ireland-in-august.html
A blog about us. Thursday, September 08, 2011. Cliona, Brian and I had a wonderful time in Ireland. We started it all off with a trip to West Cork to visit Cliona's Wave. Cliona was an immortal princess who fell in love with an Irishman but when they ran away together to Ireland, her father sent a wave to pick her up off the shoreline in Glandore, West Cork and bring her back to the Land of Eternal Promise. We stayed in a lovely cottage. Back in Dublin some of the highlights included a Viking Tour.

A blog about us. Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Brian and Cliona starting off 2012. It has been a long time since I updated the blog and I think the main reason is becasue everyone is on facebook these days and so a lot of my pictures get posted there.

Philp Family: March 2012
http://philpfamily.blogspot.com/2012/03/march-2012.html
A blog about us. Monday, March 19, 2012. Cliona found Brian's birthday hard - she was aware of all the attention on Brian and complained a little about that. But she had Avery and Kat to play with over Brian's birthday weekend which made it easier to handle. Cliona had a great ski season - she has been to the top of both Snow Summit and Bear Mountain. Her favorite this year were the rollers on Bear Mountain. She would do that run over and over again - she even caught a little air once or twice!

http://philpfamily.blogspot.com/2011/07/summer-holidays.html
A blog about us. Tuesday, July 12, 2011. The end of the school year was pretty fun for Cliona. She received an award from the school principal for being a 'good citizen'. Her teacher nominated her because she was being especially kind to her friends and was being extra helpful around the classroom. What a great girl! I couldn't be more proud knowing she goes the extra mile at school. Posted by Orla at 10:12 PM. January and February 2011. Its begining to look a lot like Christmas. Brian is 6 months old.

A blog about us. Monday, February 16, 2015. The house is framed. The new roof is nearly finished. The interior is framed. I am beginning to see what our new house will look like. We have designed our kitchen, picked counter-tops, flooring, windows and lights. We still have a lot of picking out to do but we are getting into the swing of it. The kids are getting used to spending their weekends in tile or home design stores. Posted by Orla at 9:56 AM. Novemeber 2014 - the plan.
