July 13, 2006

















We have had a fun week so far! On Tuesday, Troy went into work in the morning, and then we decided to go to Pennsylvania. We stopped in Gettysburg and then ended up in Hershey, PA.
At Gettysburg we went to the Visitor's center, and the Gettysburg National Cemetary. The kids were definately not hip on the idea of Gettysburg, except for seeing the guns and canons. So, we didn't spend much time there.

Next, we went to Chocolate World, the Hershey tourist stop. They have a big amusement park there that we were planning on going to, but our kids had so much fun at the Visitor's Center, we decided to save the money for a day we could spend the entire day at the park. We did buy chocolate, and went on a Trolley ride through the town. Milton Hershey was a very great man. It was very interesting. The kids even enjoyed the trolley ride. I'm not a nice enough mom to buy my kids those Hershey pillows, just nice enough to take a picture of them! Can you tell Kristin had been eating chocolate? Hershey was about a 2 hour drive from our house. It was a fun outing. We can't wait for this weekend to be at the Yankee Stadium!
