So, here we are, one day into 2013. Did you make resolutions yesterday? Did you break them immediately?
I'm not a big fan of New Year's Resolutions, though I do set goals for myself. My big goal for 2013 is to visit Ireland twice; once in the spring and again in the fall for the TBEX Europe conference. My other Irish goal is to continue learning to speak the Irish language.
I've been part of an Irish language class for a bit over a year and I'm getting better at picking up words in conversation. My daughters and I also use Bitesize Irish Gaelic online lessons as part of their school work.
Recently we added another tool to our Irish language arsenal.
The album “Learn Irish With Eoin” is a new way to learn Irish (Gaelic) recorded by Eoin – a native Irish speaker who explains the concepts to you in English.
The album is just over 2 hours long, has 16 tracks in total and is download-only.
“Learn Irish With Eoin” is available on iTunes and it is a great addition to your Irish language learning tools.
Bitesize Irish Gaelic have given me a copy of the album to give away. Just use the super easy RaffleCopter widget below to enter!

I forgot to add my dream destination! I traveled a fair bit around Ireland pre-kids and my dream is really to experience it with my children – although only one would be able to make this spring trip. I especially want the girls to visit the Cork area where my family is from and Cobh where they boarded a ship headed to Canada.
Cork is lovely- I want to head back there, too! I hope you can make it for St. Patty’s Day. And then tell me all about it!
I’m determined to get back to Ireland this year – hopefully in March! My 9 year old is keen to learn some Irish phrases before then and she would be thrilled to practice with this album!
My dream destination is Ireland. I want to see the whole country. I am saving to do a trip in 2017. I want to ship my motorbike over and spent about 4 months riding around Ireland. I am going to be in Ireland in June this year to attend a family gathering in Sneem. I am so excited about the trip.
@becsta7 Have a terrific time at your family gathering! This is a big year for them…. And your 2017 trip sounds like it will be incredible!
Good luck to all who enter! Great being part of Ireland With Kids.
