north conway

this was the second year we went to north conway and we LOVE it so much up there!! there is so much to see and do! amazing restaurants! super cute little town! it's got it all:) we were thinking of going to see thomas the train again but decided to go to story land instead. so glad we did! the boys had a blast!!

l's favorite ride - bamboo shoots, e milking a cow, the boys with humpty, e & mama on the train & the boys in the pumpkin;)

they also had this awesome ball fun zone... so. much. fun. you put foam balls in all sorts of contraptions that suck them up & spit them out somewhere else:) we easily spent a half hour to an hour here alone & the boys would have been happy there all day!

  we also made a little trek up mt. washington. holy scary!!! i think that might be a one time trip for these marlands;) definitely well worth it but both luke & i were a wee bit scurred;)

this is definitely a spot we will go back to every time we make our way up there. we found this river/falls last year & a bit further up there are rock water slides & rope swings & a big rowdy group of people having a blast. when the boys get older we'll definitely venture up there. but for now this spot is perfect for us & the little dudes:)

all in all a great trip. my all time favorite part (as it is every vacation) is getting to spend time with our little family:) we're pretty darn lucky to have such great boys!!
