Singing Cows

We took a day trip to Hershey with our friends, Alyssa and her little ones Cooper and Sadie. The day before she had been telling Cooper that we were going to go see the 'singing cows'. When you go to the Hershey Tourist Building you can ride this ride where they talk about making Hershey chocolate. During the ride there are three cows that sing, hence the 'singing cows'. Lucas did not like the singing cows at all, he was so afraid of them and hung onto me the whole time, which is surprising. If you think about it he knows what a cow is, can say the word, and says "moo" when asked what a cow says. He just doesn't like it when they sing apparently. So while Cooper enjoyed the ride and the singing cows, Lucas was living in terror. After the ride they give you some chocolate, and when we entered the building there was a nice older man standing there, who asked the kids there names and gave them a little chocolate bar. Lucas just held his candy, I am not sure he knew what it was, but as soon as I gave him a piece, he quickly figured it out and ate it all, except for the chocolate bar, which he had hidden away in his hand. Quite a while later, when we were headed home, I turned around in the car to give him his hamburger only to find he was covered in chocolate. Literally covered in chocolate, from head to toe! Lucas might not have enjoyed the cows, but he sure loved the chocolate!
