Harrisburg and Hershey

So two weekends ago we visited Harrisburg and Hershey, Pennsylvania. I wanted a little weekend getaway and there ended up being a horse show for the Horse World Expo in Harrisburg. Poor Kurt. We did end up getting a discount on our hotel though thanks to the horse expo.

Our hotel had a pool so Kylee got to have her first swimming experience. She was nervous and whined at first, but once she was given her favorite tub toy, tiger, she was fine. She didn't want to relinquish tiger though for the life of her. She was not much of a fan of her mother dunking her under the water either. She gave me a look of betrayal and mistrust. I couldn't help but laugh.

On our way home we stopped at the Hershey Chocolate Factory. As anyone knows whose been there, you don't actually get to enter the real factory. They have a tourist center set up for you to watch movies, taste chocolate, take a ride, and display all their types of candy for you to buy. Kylee wasn't old enough to enjoy the full benefits of being surrounded by candy, but her mom and dad sure enjoyed it. We contained ourselves to only buying a few things. It was hard though.

Overall, it was a nice weekend to just get away and spend time as a family. (Yeah!! No Internet or Xbox to distract Kurt). :)
