PARTY IN HERSHEY

This week we had a blast with Grandma and Julie who made the long flight (or should I say flights) out here. We did church on Sunday with a special sacrament just for them including talks from both Kevin and I. On Monday it was off to the amish country and a few outlets and a brief dip in the swimming pool. Tuesday featured Hersheypark, pedicures at the chocolate spa and a kid-free dinner at Houlihans. Wednesday is a blur but I know we hit the outlets and met Kevin for lunch and Julie was lured back to the spa. Thursday we had the complete Chocolate World expeience, an Elvis meeting, and more Hersheypark. I think the "eligible roller coaster riders" all got their fill of thrills. I was a big slacker in the picture taking department so here are some of the few photo highlights I have to show (check out Julie's blog in the coming days as she is sure to post some better photos there- hopefully soon).


Here is mom and Julie with "Elvis." This week Kevin was busy with some Elvis promotional stuff having to do with the new limited edition peanut butter banana cup (mmm delicious) and the pink cadillac give away contest- maybe you have heard of it or seen Kevin on the news. Heres a link if you want to check it out. He is not being interviewed but he is a prominent lurker in the background.

Kevin was in New York on Monday and Tuesday, and chauffeuring Elvis all around Hershey on Wednesday and Thursday.
At Chocolate World we had our personalized chocolate bar made- isn't it cool!

Your recap of the week was great! I just didnt know how to put it all into words but you did it marvelouslly. Unfortunately, my pictures didnt turn out great and I was so mad to discover you were in only ONE of them! It was the one at the spa and it turned out all blurry, very disappointing. Man, we had fun!

Melissa you are super cute pregant! We had so much fun In Hershey Pennsylvania when we went a few weeks ago. We loved it! I wish we could have met you there, but it was the weekend that you went to DC. So, we actually got to be there for the 100th birthday of the Hershey Kiss. :) Are those banana reeses really that good?? I'll have to try one out. Good luck back in Utah. Less then 3 weeks for us--YAHOO!! :) See you soon. Love, Kimber
