Fun day!

I had to go pick up my Karen Foster tote that I won for NSD, so I decided to make it a fun day for me and the kids.
We headed out this morning and first went to Chocolate World, did the ride and then had lunch there in the food court and bought some cookies. Hit the LSS to pick up my winnings and then headed to Hershey Gardens. We've never been there before, so thought it would be fun! They had a really nice childrens garden. Lots of things for the kids to climb around on. They also enjoyed those small trees and bushes that sort of make it like a fort underneath them.

It definately isn't Longwood Gardens, but it was still nice. There weren't many people there either, so that made it even better!

It was definately hot out in the sun. Luckily, they had Hershey Kiss spritzer fountains in the childrens area. You never knew when they were going to go off, but they usually surprised the kids and got some good squeals out of them!

We were so hot when we were done that we went back over to Chocolate World and got milkshakes. Chocolate milkshakes you ask? No, we got strawberry! Boy were they yummy!! I saw too that they made the chocolate milkshakes with chocolate milk, bet they are rich!

We sipped on our milkshakes on the way home and the kids watched the Cars movie on the way.

Made for a really fun day, but we were all pretty beat!!


I'm a little late, but just wanted to add in Shandy's blog challenge from yesterday. It's pretty sad, but I don't know any "big people" jokes. All I know are 4 year old jokes! So, this is Macy favorite joke right now:
"What do you call a fish with two knees?"
A tunee fish. Like tuna, I guess! lol
