Storyland 2011

This past weekend was the annual Storyland trip with the "five families". The kids were really looking forward to it. It was the first year that Luke really remembered the rides and got excited talking about which ones were his favorites. Paige talked a lot too and claims to remember but I think she is "me too'ing" after Luke's recollections.
We've stayed in different houses each year, this year we finally found our forever vacation house! It was beautiful and old and very very large - a must with 10 kids, 10 adults. This place was built in the 1860s as a summer house to a wealthy family from Europe. I didn't get a picture of the house (will next year) but did get a great view from the back porch. Also had a great yard for the kids to run run run run!!!
Storyland was great, as always. The weather was perfect and the place was not crowded at all. This year we ventured up to Cinderella's castle so Paige could meet her live and in person. Paige got a little shy when we got there but has been talking about her ever since and tells everyone she sees "I met Cinderella!!"

Favorite ride of the kids was the "Panda Express" as Luke called it. Looks like Daddy liked it too-
