We all need a holiday every now and again.
Especially when we’ve been dealing with snow and torrential rain over the last few weeks here in Ireland.
While we could all do with a little getaway, Rosie Connolly has shared the sweet reason why she has jetted off to Spain.
She jetted off with her husband Paul Quinn and her parents for a gorgeous getaway.

Rosie explained that she and her mother had spoken before Christmas about the importance of experiences and making memories.
So instead of material gifts, they opted to take a trip together.
“We swapped Christmas presents for experiences this year and I’m so thrilled we did…“ she explained.
“My mum and I had a conversation last year about how we wanted to make core memories with our family instead of buying gifts and so my treat to them was to take them to Madrid this week and spend some quality time together…
“we laughed until we cried, drank beers all day and just loved every second, even squeezing in a quick Sephora stop for me and ticked the culture box for my mum by seeing the beautiful Palace in Madrid.
“One of my fave cities and it now hold wonderful fun memories of time spent with my parents.“
She shared a video that saw herself and Paul taking in the sites as well as her mother, Anna and stepfather, Billy soaked up the sun during their time there.
