We took a family trip to Hershey Park yesterday. Jenn won some tickets at the 5k race we recently did as a family (it was a very very slow walk......) and we used up our last 2 tickets (Seb and Bronwen have passes,and, Linus is free!). The first part of the day we spent at the new waterpark they built especially for the 100 year anniversary of Hershey Park. The kids had a blast and so did Jenn and Andy. (Jenn even went on the highest waterslide!) As you can tell, there were smiles all around. Then we moved to the "dry" part of the park and hung around there until it closed. We all slept good that night!

I am starting this blog on behalf of the Moore family for all of the wonderful people in our lives. The kids are growing quickly and we often hear "Where are pictures? We NEED MORE PICTURES" so here you go, more pictures, and, comentary to go along with the pictures.

(Here is Linus overlooking Hershey Park from by the Hershey Gardens...he is thinking "Next year maybe I can bribe the ride operators so I can go on the coasters too!" )

So on Monday the kids and Jenn took a hike to a local trail. They really enjoy the outdoors (except for "buggies" which freak Bronwen out in a big way) and climbing. Little do they know that climbing is in their genes since Mommy has hiked many a trail in her day, and done a lot of rock climbing as well. Here are Seb and Bronwen going up the "big mountain" that is off the trail at this particular place.

It was Seb has made it to the top of this particular "big mountain" before (photo) but, for the first time our sweet Bronwen made her way to the top! As you can see, it is pretty high, so we are impressed that our 3 1/2 year old "buggie hating" princess made it to the top, in sport sandles none-the-less. (We sadly have no pictures of her at the top, at that point Jenn was 1/2 way up the mountain, Linus in tow, making sure if she fell that somebody was there to help catch!)
