A Visit to Oma and Opa

We spent a week visiting Oma and Opa at their new place in Lancaster PA over Labor Day. Here are some photo highlights:

Oma and Emmitt. Unfortunately Oma broke her foot/ ankle/ leg a couple of weeks earlier so she wasnt as mobile as she would have liked. The kids were still able to have a great time with her.
We met Opa for lunch a couple of times. It was always fun!We had to visit Hershey and all it had to offer including Chocolate World, Hersheypark, the Chocolate Spa (mom only) and the outlets. We took just the older two to Hersheypark one night. The few pictures I took didnt turn out very well because it was dark but we rode every thrill ride in the park and had a blast!

The other kids in this picture are the Clements kids. We met up with Kevin's old freshman roommate Tom and his family. Our kids had a really great time together. Brayden is still talking about them.
Here's Emmitt and Opa and me on the "chocolate ride." He was quite scared of the singing cows so we had to turn him away whenever they were coming up. It was pretty funny.

Here's Emmitt crawling around at Omas house. Such a great smile he has. He learned to clap while we were there so that was pretty exciting!

One day we took the kids over to the stables where Oma keeps her horses and let the kids spend some time with the animals. They LOVED it!

Even Emmitt who is afraid of most stuffed animals really seems to love real animals. He wasnt at all afraid of these horses or the dogs at Oma's house. I was quite suprised by that.
