"2015" Disney Vacation

 Hi there friends....
I really missed you guys!!
I enjoyed my summer blogging break...my family and I had a busy but fabulous time!
We entertained quite a bit with family and friends...my younger two did a few camps and then we finished off the summer with an awesome trip to Disney World!
Not happy schools starting next week:-(
~~~~
We stayed in Disney at the Yacht Club Resort...what a beautiful resort!

 

 A few pics of the inside...



 The beautiful pool area...the bottom of the pool was sand...it felt so good on your feet.




We saw beautiful sunsets almost every night.

Had fun at the parks...

 Victoria enjoyed meeting all the characters...
she had a lot of fun swapping pins too...that's why she has the lanyard around her neck.



We had dinner in Cinderella's castle one night...our table was right near the window which gave us perfect view of the fireworks!





We saw great shows...






Went on scary rides...the kids that is not me!!

Great vacation...
 Happy Family!!!

Now that summer is coming to an end maybe I can get back into the blogging groove!

My name is Lynn and I am the author of the blog, The Vintage Nest, and today I am your host for the

This week on a blog post I explained a little bit about pickling, white washing or liming furniture.  I took you thru the process that I use on a vintage pine cabinet.  I hope you will check out the post here.


As always, it's terribly hard to pick out just a few features for you.  I spent hours looking at all the beautiful posts.  Here are a few that really caught my eye.  Enjoy and if you were featured please grab the button below to post on your blog.  :)

FEATURES

On the blog Bringing French Country Home, Pat shares some late summer blooms  in her garden.   My garden is waning right now, especially with no rain lately, and I enjoyed her post and beautiful photos so much.  Thank you Pat.



Is this the cutest vignette ever??  Michelle of Dandelion Patina, shared how she made a lounger out of hay bales.  How charming for your front porch for Fall, right up on to Thanksgiving.  Thank you Michelle for this charming inspiration.




Sarah gave us the basics of canning.  With summer's bounty coming in in full swing right now, I loved that she shared her knowledge with us.  It's so healthy for you!  Not to mention so pretty sitting on the shelves in your kitchen.  You can find her post on her blog  Must Have Mom.




LZ of Summery Umbrella, shows us how to make the cutest branch ladder.  Perfect for an Autumn  vignette on your front porch or yard, on a screen porch holding some throws for those chilly nights or just as she shows,  which family photos.  It's so cute LZ.




And Briana of the Bargain Briana blog, shared with us how to make this adorable crayon wreath.  Now, wouldn't your kids think you are the best Mom on the block with this on the front door for the first week of school or on a school teacher's class room door?  Thank you Briana for this delightful project.



Let's Party!!
