This past weekend Spencer and I were able to see my Aunt, Uncle and Cousins. We are winding down the summer and are heading back to Utah here in a week, we had to go see them since it is just a 2 hour drive. I hadn't seen them since my Grandma died 5 years ago. My Aunt and Uncle were very generous and put us in the Hotel my Uncle runs. It was a nice hotel. Spencer and I definitely needed a little get away. So THANK you SO much!
I've missed my cousins. I always wished that we lived closer. They were so much fun to be around and to hang out and talk with. When my Grandma died my family went to Utah to help my Aunt clean out her house. Spencer had come up to take me to EFY and go camping with Braiden. We were 17 at the time. Every time Spencer walked into the room where Blair was she would cry. She was so afraid of him. When we were there it was cute because she kept saying she faced her fear and wasn't scared of Spencer.
They live in a cute little town called Elizabethtown, right by Hershey, PA. We didn't do Hershey Park because August is it's busiest month. We did however do Chocolate World. It was a lot of fun! We rode this ride that gave us a tour on how Chocolate was made and they had different activities that you could do. It is geared toward little kids but it was still fun.
We got some souvenirs and then headed to Lancaster, PA to learn about the Amish. Spencer and I took some of my Cousins and we went to the central market in Lancaster. We were excited when we first saw Amish people at the market. They were dressed in traditional clothing and some had an interesting accent. We then met up with the rest of my family and rode a buggy through their town. It amazes me that people still live with no modern technology.
We headed back to my Aunts house and played dance central. Spencer even played it! I wish I would have gotten a picture of that. Then we ended the night with a campfire and telling stories and looking at pictures of my Grandparents. It was so much fun to see them and to spend time with them. I hope that we can do it again soon!
