Yesterday, our joyful spunky "baby" turned 8! Ever since she knew we'd be in New Jersey for her birthday, she's been wishing for snow for her day ...and...she got her wish! The cousins had a snow day Monday so it was a perfect day to celebrate AB's birthday! She had her first special Aunt Roxie …
On Monday we took another fun field trip (thanks Pa!). This time we headed north to Hyde Park, NY. This Middle Hudson Valley area is so gorgeous! If we had more hours of sunlight, I would have loved to catch more pics of the Hudson. We also wish we could have walked across the Walkway …

On Saturday we headed into NYC for the Radio City Music Hall Christmas Spectacular - aka - The Rockettes! AB read a babysitter's club book set in The Big Apple and she has wanted to go back ever since - so she was probably most excited. It was cold but we tried to walk around …

We couldn't bring Woody to the dealer to get his things fixed until today (instead of last weekend)....so this week we stayed at Jellystone in Tabor City. The kids (and Mommy) were super …
After Montreat and the Biltmore ..... on Friday we finally were able to check off AB's bucket list item for our travel year: Horseback riding! All that rain Wed and Thurs brought in a cold front and it was 33 degrees Friday morning when we left for the stables! Elsa had visited the tops of …
On Tuesday, B took the day off and we took our 2 princesses and our under-cover-protecting-2-princesses-Jedi to a beautiful, American castle The Biltmore!!! (FYI - if you are driving in with your RV, make sure you get or pick up your tickets at the Group Sales building which is immediately on your right even before …
Sunday and Monday we stayed at the KOA East of Asheville. We came here so we could visit the Biltmore before we head to Maggie Valley on Tuesday but it ended up being a great, short stay! The KOA had us backed up to a river so this was our backyard for 2 days: Guess …
