New Hampshire Bound...

We ventured there last year for a quick weekend away. 

This year we ventured back since we loved it so very much! 

Keene, NH:) 

Small town, cute shops, good food, great hotel, and a Lake! 

We stay just off Main Street - so we walk to breakfast or shops as we please without hopping in the car. 

It's never fun getting there - we venture through NJ, NY, and lower CT = Traffic. Ugh. 

but heading back in usually worse - vacation is over! 

Last year we went over the July 4th holiday and this year we went in late August. 

I think sometime between the two would be best.

I'm already looking forward to our trip next year - so relaxing and fun!

We spent most of our days on Spofford Lake... 

shoveling sand, looking for shells (yes there were shells!), swimming, and boat watching. 

The kid had his tube and went wayyy out there with dad! The slope was very gradual and the water warm so it's perfect for kids! (and moms who hate cold water)

He loved watching the boats, jet skis, and skiers going by! 

And look at this white boy - I had him layered in SunScreen head to toe! 

We ate dinner at The Stage twice - such yummy food. and outdoor seating right on Main St. 

He also got some lessons at the hotel pool table! 

I think his favorite purchase of the trip was his new goggles.

While he loves his change holder that says NH with a Moose on it...

He really really loves his goggles! 

So much so - that he found new uses for them once we were home!
