My Woodloch Story

It’s official, we are definitely coming back to the woodloch ! Our weekend resort was just amazing. There was so much to do, from the daily activities to the meal plans. They even had activities for the Little princess as well. A moment captured when I told her it’s time to go do some more activities. 😀 ____________________________________________________ #the_afrogent #StyleBlogger #dcblogger #dc #dmv #dmvblogger #dcblogger #dmvblogger #mywoodlochstory #woodloch #poconos ...

I’m not a big fan of winter, but I’m definitely a fan of God’s creation, sunrises, sunsets and my family. 💙 ...

“Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory” Dr. Seuss Take the trip. Create the memories. Be together every chance you get. Being a mom to these three is my greatest privilege. There is nothing more important to Dave and me. Last weekend we had the opportunity to spend time together woodloch resort. To be honest, I was feeling so stressed and really wasn’t looking forward to a weekend away. You know what? I should’ve recognized that as a cry for NEEDING a family weekend away. I’m sharing our beautiful fall weekend in stories today and in detail on the blog. When’s the last time you had an uninterrupted weekend with your family? #theworkspace #raisingcreativekids #hosted #travelwithkids #familytime #mywoodlochstory #woodloch #woodlochpines ...

Remember that Valentines Day giveaway? Well these are the lucky 2 that won it! Had the absolute best time with them at my favorite place ever. Rethinking all of my prompts now though because of this kid right here!!! “Ok now start dancing” *starts doing the robot* 😂😂 Still cracking up. Best couple. Best place. Best weekend. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #woodlochpines #hawley #pa #pennsylvania #valentinesday #giveaway #winner #longisland #longislandphotographer #photographer #authenticlove #authenticlovemag #dirtybootsmessyhair #couplephotoshoot #nassaucounty #suffolkcounty #liny #nassaucountyphotographer #suffolkcountyphotographer #woodloch #couplegoals ...

What a year and what a decade! I’ll save you all from a sappy post about this year that you’ll most likely scroll past BUT I leave for the best place in the world tomorrow! Woodloch Pines. I’ve gone every single year since I was in the womb. This will be my 26th year there! My family basically takes up the entire resort booking 80-100 rooms! You cannot walk anywhere in the resort without knowing someone. It is the absolute best 🥰❤️ Cannot wait for much needed family time, putting my phone down and just enjoying things in the moment. Sorry in advance for delayed responses to inquiries! I will be back on Monday. Happy New Years Eve everyone 😘 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #melissaleighphotography #woodloch #woodlochpines #woodlochresort #woodlochpinesresort #poconos #poconosweekend #poconotourism #poconophotographer #authenticlovemag #authenticlovepresets #authenticlove #dirtybootsandmessyhair #dirtybootsmessyhair #longisland #longislandny #newyorknewyork #nyny #timesquare #nye #nyc #newyearseve #newyear #2019 #2020 #2020vision #longislandphotographer #newyorkphotographer ...

“These are the days.... to remember.” This 10,000 Maniacs song is playing on a loop in the back of my brain this weekend. Spending this priceless time with Dave, Nate, Ruby and Sloane on this crispy fall 🍁weekend at #woodloch is exactly what I want to remember. Thanks to woodloch for hosting us and thank YOU for joining us in stories 🍁. Tell me what you want to remember about spending time with your crew. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••#theworkspace #raisingcreativekids #travelwithkids #familieswhotravel #fallweekend #poconosmountains #sponsored ...

When I think about this man, I think of support, love and kindness. I’ve never met someone who so fearlessly supports me in every crazy endeavor. I’ve never met someone with a bigger heart. And I’ve never met someone who quietly loves everyone around him with a fierce kindness. He’s a bit sassy, and always looking to pick on me. But it’s just because his flirting skills are from kindergarten. I love you with my full heart. Happy birthday to my favorite guy! 🖤 (Thank you for agreeing to take one picture with me this weekend.) ...

TAKE ME BACK TUESDAY: As a chill returns to the air today, I’m missing my favorite fall/winter happy place woodloch! There’s nothing like the cozy vibes and restful atmosphere to reset your heart after a busy summer & early fall. . . . I think it’s important to have a memory or thought that can bring you peace when times are hectic and stressful. For me, it’s memories sitting on the back deck with a fire looking over the lake or watching football on the leather couches with my dad. Whenever this place pops into my head, it is a quiet reminder that good times with family will always be there. . . . Take a moment to breathe and remember that life ebbs and flows, and there is nothing wrong with either. At least that’s what I’m thinking about this Tuesday. #woodloch #woodlochweekends #familyvacation #poconos ...

Watching the sunset on our return trip here to Woodloch. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #mywoodlochstory As second time Woodloch guests we felt like we were coming "home" to Woodloch. Will couldn't have said it better when we arrived and he said, "it feels really good to be back here at Woodloch." As we pulled in the entrance and watched the deer grazing in front of the Main Lodge we had really arrived back home!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ During this trip I was trying to figure out what exactly about Woodloch causes so many people to regard it as their "home" away from home. The main conclusion I have come to is this, when you arrive at Woodloch you become part of the Woodloch family and their family traditions become yours! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Woodloch has certainly carved out a special place in the heart of our family. We look forward to returning year after year and hope to one day look across the dining hall and see our children and their children laughing and experiencing the tradition of Woodloch!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Look out for my blog post tomorrow where I will tell you all about our most recent trip, dive in deeper into why Woodloch has become a family tradition for us, and why we think Woodloch lives up to it's title of #1 Family Resort in the Country!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #hosted ...
