Family Fun

Our family enjoys sharing some of the things we do for fun from going to the county fair, building farm toy displays for both planting season and harvest and enjoying Disney.

We never expected to love going on Disney Cruises and vising Walt Disney World as much as we do.Ā  We hope the tips and tricks that we share will make your vacation experience much better as well as some notes on how to get started planning a trip.

Maybe you'll jump out of your comfort zone and check out the Castaway 5K too.Ā  I'd say it's a bucket list kind of thing just to be on the island!
