Hershey…part 1
(yes, the town lights really are shaped like kisses)
Well, it’s official. I have way to many photos that I absolutely adore from last week.
So, in order to prevent people from waiting even longer for these pics, I’ll go ahead and load a few. It’s just too darn hard to choose which ones to load!!!
Hershey was, without a doubt, fabulous. Seeing all of the girls from college again was the highlight of my year. It was as if we rewound 10 years (well, add a few husbands and kids). We all had a house together, which was equally as fabulous (and cheap!) It looked like the inside of a Pottery Barn catalog. And it was only 2 block from Chocolate Avenue. Here’s the week in review:
Saturday - arrive and pretend like the last few years of not being together didn’t exist. Phone call from Michele’s pregnant sister - she just had to go into labor as soon as we all got there!
Sunday - party and Diana’s! Her in-laws threw a party for all of us (weren’t they brave!) We MIGHT have succeeded in actually having a picture of all of us had Chele’s sis not delivered a beautiful baby girl (practically in her sleep, I might add) on Sunday morning. Chele, who is 8 1/2 months preggo herself, drove back to Baltimore for the day while the rest of us partied. That evening, Keren departed. 
Monday - Keren-less, we all went to the Chocolate Spa for the day. Michele even made it back in time. Yeah. That was heaven.
Tuesday - Off to Chocolate World for the morning to pick up $40 worth of chocolate and scope out the new additions to Hershey’s offerings (watch out dark chocolate lovers - they have LOTS of that coming out!) Then, the house emptied. Everyone else had to go back home, while we stayed in the house for the week. It was quiet. Too quiet. It’s a good thing that Di, Aron and Sam were just a few miles away!
Wednesday - Hershey Park. From 10a to 4p. Needless to say, poor Emily was asleep before we left the parking lot. It was too darn sweet watching the kids ride the rides together, but, secretly, Chris and I longed for a grandparent to be with us so we could get on some coasters! (note to self - bring mom next year).
Thursday - Day of REST!!!!!!! Aron and Di come by for the evening.
Friday - Off to the Strasburg Railroad for the day, then spent a long, wonderful evening w/ Aron and Di again. 
Saturday - start the trek home.
And for your viewing pleasure…PICTURES:
The Sunday crew - all of us with the exception of Michele and Adam)
Another view of the Sunday crew - Aron’s dad was cracking me up walking all over the place w/ the camera. But I ended up LOVING this shot! All of us are actually in it!
