Hershey Park Trip


What a wonderful time we had yesterday at Hershey Park. The weather was beautiful, the company was great, and the boys had a blast. I am so thankful that mom talked us in to going with her on the church's yearly trip. I was a little, ok a lot, hesitant about taking a four year old and a 20 month old on a bus with 50 other people for over 2 hours but it worked out fine. We had to get up pretty early in the morning to get to mom's in time to catch the bus so the boys were a little drowsy getting going. The ride to the park didn't go the greatest. I was for sure that they would go back to sleep since we had to get up so early but they didn't. Triston couldn't decide where he wanted to sit. They watched a movie but where our seats were it was a little difficult to see so we had to keep switching places. Finally, Triston decided to sit on the floor in front of me and Trenton and play his hand held game. We arrived at the park and got ourselves together and headed out for a fun filled day. I don't think that there wasn't much of anything that we didn't get to do. First, we just went and rode a few rides and I was a little leery of allowing Trenton to ride the rides by himself, even though he met the requirements but I did let him ride one by himself and that was the last one because I nearly had a heart attack!! Triston of course didn't want it any other way, he rode as much as he could and made friends with others when Trenton couldn't ride. We ate some lunch and watched the seal show and went through the Zoo America. We are definitely going to have to make a trip to the zoo. We finished the day with a trip through the chocolate factory gift shop!




As you go into the park they have beams with height requirements so that the kids know which rides that they will be able to ride and the ones that they can't.











Our little kiss! Our miniature!










The first ride that we rode was the carousel, I tell you it went a little too fast for me. It gave me a headache because I can't deal with rides that spin. Roller coasters, no problem!









The boys had such a great time! Trenton would kick and scream, not to get on, but to get off. He just wanted to stay on every ride!








Hands down, the Frog Hopper, was Triston's favorite ride of the day. He must have rode it 20 times, this was also the ride I let Trenton ride by himself! I know what was I thinking!





The day was all together wonderful: great weather, great company, great food, & great gifts!



There as so many more photos that I could share, but I am sure that I have something around this house that needs to be done! Look for July 4th photos!!!

I can't believe the boys can go on rides by themselves! So grown up! I bet they had a blast- they looks so happy with their little stuffed toys! Glad the trip went well.

What an awesome day for you guys!! It is a little scary, putting your baby on a ride all by himself! Hershey is so fun, isnt' it? I've told Josh that I think I will be terrified the first time I get on a roller coaster again because it's literally been years since I've been on one!! Love your updates, Debra!!

Have a happy 4th!!!
