Spring Break

We started off our spring break this year with a Birthday celebration for Mike - dinner out and bowling.  It was our first time bowling as a family (Meredith's first time) and everyone had fun.  We even let Mike win.  Later that weekend we all went to see the Lego movie together and it was Awesome!

Then we hit the road to Hershey PA.  We learned about making chocolate at Chocolate World on a fun ride with singing Cows.  Then Jeffrey, Meredith and I made our own Chocolate Bars.    We really liked seeing the 'factory line' it was just like one of our favorite TV shows 'How Its Made'.  Our chocolate bars were so yummy and fresh,  Jeffrey's had a white chocolate base and cookie bits with milk chocolate on top.

Wearing our official factory gear!

Jeffrey's chocolate bar comes down the line, he is so excited!

We drove to Easton PA for the night and enjoyed swimming in the hotel pool, dinner at Panera, treats from Wegmans, and movie night in our suite.  The kids really liked staying in the hotel and were very good.  After a quick waffle breakfast it was off to the Crayola Factory!

We learned how crayons are made, and got to put our own personalized wrappers on some crayons.  Then we made some markers, enjoyed making digital art and of course did some coloring.  Then we found the indoor playground and indoor water table - the kids loved those!  Its amazing how many different colors we saw that day - it was fun playing with all sorts of different art supplies.
