Gracie's Present

Gracie got her Christmas present from mommy and daddy a little early this year. We took her to Hershey Park!

She was so surprised, and we all had so much fun this may well become a yearly tradition.

After a big breakfast at Denny's we made the 2 hour journey to Hershey, PA for a day of fun at the park's Candylane.

Most of the rides were open and we perfect for her age. The roller coasters and the water park and rides were of course off limits. But, they had so many fun things to do and sights to see. They had light displays every where, Santa and his reindeer, a Christmas show, and so much more! (Can you tell mommy had a great time too!)

We stayed for about 6 hours, and really the cold wasn't bad until the sun set. Then the temperature started to drop by the minute it seemed. We let Gracie choose a few more rides and then we went to Chocolate World to warm up.

At the Chocolate factory you get to see how they make chocolate and of course get a free piece of candy and buy enormous amounts of it if you wish.

We had our fun and we were plenty cold, tired, and hungry by the time we all loaded back in the car to head home.

We stopped at a Red Robin for dinner, and then we loaded up and headed back. Our little angel was asleep in 10 minutes.

I had the best time, and as a family we really enjoyed the day of fun and getting to share such a special Christmastime memory.

Here are some more pictures from our very fun day at Hershey Park!
