Favorite Quidditch Team/Country
This is an easy pick for us: IRELAND! The three of us are extremely proud of our Irish heritage. My grandfather was born here in the U. S., but he spent quite a bit of his youth with his grandmother in County Antrim before returning to America permanently. My shamrock necklace and claddagh ring are my two favorite pieces of jewelry that I own, and I wear them every day. St. Patrick's Day is a big one for us; as you can see from the photo, Ally and Melissa's dog, Tyler, joins in the annual celebration, too. So if we were to attend the Quidditch World Cup, we'd be all decked out in green, for sure.
Great pick (since I chose them too, duh! :)). I hope I can visit Ireland soon, everyone that goes there falls in love. :)
ReplyDeleteHope we can got to a World Cup together and root for the green! :)
Ireland is one of the countries I'd most love to visit- it just looks so beautiful. And I'd totally root for the green at a World Cup! :D
DeleteAhhh some really cool jewellery there! :). Great post, I think a lot will love Ireland!
ReplyDeleteI love Irish-themed jewelry! Besides the shamrock and claddagh, I love Celtic knot designs, too.
DeleteFantastic choice, Ireland got a shout out on my post too :) And I've loved claddagh rings ever since I was a little girl ♥ Thanks for sharing those great pictures!
ReplyDeleteI'd always wanted a piece of claddagh jewelry, and I fell in love with this one because it has my birthstone in it. :D
DeleteMy family is Irish/Scottish..thusly why we are all pale and freckly!
ReplyDeleteMy mom was Irish on both sides of her family, and she had a very fair complexion. No freckles, though. :D
DeleteFun!!! I love the Irish too. I always think of the leprechauns coming out and fighting in the World Cup Quidditch match.
ReplyDeleteHaha! I loved that part! I also loved the giant leprechaun in the GoF movie. :)
DeleteI love St. Patrick's Day so much. Love the claddagh ring! I really enjoyed the gold the leprechauns threw to the crowd and watching the veela that everyone loved turn into the ugly birds.
ReplyDeleteThe only pair of earrings that I have that is real white gold/diamonds is a pair of shamrocks and I wear them everyday :D Love your pick! Jaclyn @ JC's Book Haven.
Your earrings sound beautiful! I like to think that wearing shamrock jewelry is lucky!
