On day 5 we:

Went on a road trip!
Our first stop was Berwick Offray in Hagerstown, MD . . .
We spent over an hour in ribbon heaven . . .
You wouldn't believe the prices. See those grocery bags? All the ribbon in them for 50 cents! 50 yards of gross grain for $1.25. Rolls of the cute patterned ribbon you find in craft stores for around $2.50 were on sale 20 for $1.00. We went to town . . .
Nat, this is for you to make your hair bows!
Our next stop was Hershey, PA. Where kisses sit atop the lamp posts . . .
Welcome to Chocolate World . . .
We were guided on our tour by this handsome cow . . .
And these three singing beauties . . .
We had so much fun on the ride that we went twice . . .
Look at that yummy chocolate . . .
They show you a running total of what they have produced that day. The kisses went up a million just from our first tour to our second . . .
A chocolate bar big enough to share . . .
A kissable hat . . .
Goodbye friends . . .
We tried to stop in Amish country on the way home, but it was already 5:00 and they turn in early. Maybe next trip.

I do not think that chocolate bar is big enough to share...

Emily, I am loving reading your blog!!! Wish I could be there with you, your mom, and Aunt Lana. Maybe you could hire out as a tour guide :-)

So fun!! Glad you enjoyed Hershey. I've only been there to see a play, oddly enough, never to the chocolate side of things. I think that needs to be a lifetime goal for me! It's so close to philly.
