We have had the opportunity to travel to Ireland a few times and I always fall more and more in love when I am there.

There is something so deeply peaceful and joyful about being back in the land of my ancestors. It just feels right.

Today I am excited to share our favorite Irish Quotes and Cheers. These remind me of my grandmother and the words she told us growing up.

Ok, some of these Irish sayings my grandmother probably would not have said but they are still pretty amazing.

These Irish Toasts, Proverbs, and Quotes are perfect for special occasions, drinking with good friends, St. Patrick's Day, or just because.
