Hershey Park

So much fun!

After trying to meet friends at Hershey Park this summer without success, we finally made it towards the end of September. We had great weather and so much fun!
The kids all got along really well, the boys enjoyed many of the rides.



Avery's favorite ride was the Frog Hopper. She went on it many, many times. It was so much fun watching their faces.


Jackson went on a lot of rides, but there were some that he wasn't quite big enough for...yet. While the big kids went on other rides, we found a toddler scrambler for him to enjoy.



Charlie experienced his first big rollercoaster! While he says he liked it, he also says it was very scary. And while the husbands went on all the crazy coasters, the wives and kids enjoyed the more tame ones.

It was so great to get the two families together, we hope to do this again next year.

A lot of fall fun

We have been blessed with a lot of beautiful weather this fall. We have taken advantage and the kids are having so much fun!

Yesterday Jackson and I met Charlie's kindergarten class at the farm we visit frequently. It was nice to see Charlie interact with his class and meet some other kids and parents. The kids picked pumpkins, learned about growing pumpkins and apples and then fed some of the animals. Always a fun place to visit.



Went pumpkin picking and the kids had a great time trying to lift the heaviest ones into the wagon.


This was the first time visiting this local farm and it was great. Really close to our house, family run, great picking and prices. Looking forward to their strawberries and raspberries next year.
