Hershey, PA Vacation July 2-6, 2012

After the big birthday bash, we headed to Hershey, PA with Grandma and Grandpa K! We stayed in a quaint guest house just 5 minutes from Hershey. Our fist night there, we checked out the Hotel Hershey, where we also had a fabulous dinner at Harvest. The food was amazing!

We visited Hershey Park - an amusement park filled more than 20 kiddie rides and 12 full size roller coasters and a waterpark. Kaitlyn's favorite was the Flying Eagles and Brady's favorite was the Mine Ride rollercaoster - he bacame quite the dare devil!

We also visited Chocolate World - an informative experinece that allows you to see how Hershey Chocolate is made. There was also a fun 3-D movie about the life of Mr. Milton Hershey, as well as a trolley tour that took you through the town of Hershey, stopping at historic ladmarks along the way. We had a fantastic time - the kids didn't want to leave.

Below is a collage of the highlights of our trip.

He scored tons of tickets in the ticket blaster, had a Star Wars cake and had a great time playing games with all his friends. Here are some highlights from the awesome party!

A weekend in the city...

Kaitlyn has her first Irish dance feis here in downtown Atlanta. We decided to make a weekend of it (she dances today and tomorrow) and spend the night at the hotel where the feis is being held. We started very early this morning with Kaitlyn dancing just before 9am! She did amazing and placed in both her dances (second in jig; 3rd in reel). After she finished dancing we headed to the children's museum of Atlanta. The kids had a blast trying all the cool things to do. Then we grabbed some lunch in centennial park (it's 65 degrees here so we ate outside!!) and then hit the aquarium. The kids are excited to swim at the indoor pool later and then it's more dancing in the morning!

Kaitlyn's first ATL Irish Dance performance

Since moving to Atlanta, the kids had to get involved in their activities down here. Kaitlyn started Irish dancing at Mulligan School back in August. She competed in her first Southern Region Feisanna in November. Tonight, she performed at her first community event with some of the other girls from the dance studio. She did fantastic. I took several pictures as well as a video of her dancing with the other girls. She will be doing many more performances as she made the Tara Dance Company (which is a handpicked dance team that travels the city in the Spring doing performances). We are quite proud of our little Irish dancer and can't wait to see where her dancing takes us! Here is the video...
