Happy New Year! We’re back. Spent Christmas at Disney World and stayed at the Animal Kingdom Lodge which was absolutely amazing. On Christmas day we went to a very crowded Epcot. We quickly learned our lesson and decided from that day onward we would get up early and hit the other parks during the morning ‘magic hours‘, get fast passes as often as possible and schedule our daily events in greater detail. This worked out well and the trip went smoothly. The weather was warm and sunny, had drinks by the pool each day, and reluctantly, returned to a cold and snowy New Hampshire.

Another summer has come and gone and I haven’t done much posting here lately. Been busy with a few outdoor projects, a family reunion, and camping with the family.

The big summer project was having a new patio put in the backyard and a walkway put down in front of the house. The patio included a ‘water feature’, a small waterfall that the kids and dog love. The water fall pool is just big enough for the girls to sit on the side and hang their feet in. Here are a few pictures of the finished product…
