Summer Vacation Fun

Jeff's had this week off and we decided just to stick around here. We started Monday off with the ultrasound and then went to chocolate world in the evening. Chocolate world was filled with VERY Interesting people going to the Def Leppard and Journey concert. As we left the concert was just starting and we saw more than one group of people holding their red plastic cups full of beer. And we think admission was free if your hair was cut in a mullet because almost everyone's was.On Tuesday we decided to hit Hershey Park early and go for a few hours before the crowds came. It was fun and Owen got to go on a bunch of rides, including a few new ones. He was being really brave and having a lot fun. Here they are on the frog hopper. This ride is one of the scarier ones and this is the first time he's smilied the whole time through. We know it looks like Jeff broke in and forced the guy to let him on, but that's really a seat designed for an adult to go with their child. In the afternoon we had a barbeque with our friends and then went to a free concert over on the medical center lawn. Owen had so much fun dancing and going completely crazy. I didn't have my camera so I have to get some pictures of him dancing from our friend. After the concert we drove up Hershey Park Drive and parked closer to where the fireworks were going off. It was fun but we were so worried about getting suck in a traffic jam on the way out and we didn't really enjoy the fireworks. They weren't really that great anyway. But it was a fun adventure. I think Owen had a great day because he got to pee in a field, by a bush, and by a fence becuase we were so busy. He is doing so well with potty training!

On Wednesday we went down to Lancaster. We went to the National Toy Train museum. It was a lot of fun. They had a bunch of displays and you pushed buttons and the trains would take off around the track. Owen loved it. After a while we realized he couldn't really see very well so he spent a lot of time on Jeff's shoulders. We also did a little shopping, but I wasn't feeling the best, so we ended up coming home early.

On Friday we went swimming. Here Owen is sporting his new speedo float suit. He didn't have his front floaters in, but there are floaters in the front and back. He loves it although he doesn't quite understand how to balance himself. It's been a really fun week just spending time together.
