Hershey Park

July 2011 Hershey Park began with a tour of the pseudo chocolate factory. Gabriella was completely enthralled. Why? I can tell you it had nothing to do with learning about the chocolate making process... it was because she learned that one of the pretend cows was named "Gabriella."

The cow on the left shared a name with Gabriella.

She requested having her face painted all day! It's a VERY serious process.

Like a great big sister she even let Brianna join her on some rides --I love the pure joy in this shot!

And, of course, her favorite ride of all time with Daddy. She's been talking about the rocket ships since we left Hershey Park two years ago!

She even learned to like chocolate during this trip. (Much to my disappointment as I may not get free reign over her Halloween candy this year.)

And, a few too many pieces of chocolate and many hours later... the ride back to the hotel....
