Looking back at 2022 – I don’t even feel like this year was real. I can hardly believe all the amazing things we did!! (Thankfully, I have the videos and photos to prove it’s true!)
In 2022, we visited 18 different amusement parks and 3 water parks up and down the East Coast and across the Mid West. We were in Florida twice this year, and visited several states we’ve never been in (on our way out to Silver Dollar City, we added Illinois and Missouri to our list!) We took our kids to Walt Disney World for the first time (my first time back since working there in 2009!)
The year was full to the brim with amazing adventures and precious memories – my heart is literally bursting with gratitude for every moment.
As amazing as 2022 was, we are already excited & looking forward to 2023! Where do you think we’ll go next?
