Visiting @SesamePlace For A Very Furry Christmas? How About Staying Over at Courtyard By Marriott #FurryChristmas

Visiting @SesamePlace For A Very Furry Christmas?
 How About Staying Over at Courtyard By Marriott
Being a Sesame Place Ambassador Blogger allows our family to spend many days at Sesame Place.
Being we are less than two hours from the theme park we can choose to stay over or make it a day trip.
My family loves spending time together and cannot usually resist the chance to check out a  new hotel.
Recently when we visited Sesame Place for A Very Furry Christmas we had the pleasure of staying at Courtyard by Marriott in Langhorne, Pa. The Courtyard by Marriott is a Sesame Place Partner Preferred hotel and located close to the park with a shuttle bus service to take your family back and forth to the park if you choose.
 The Courtyard by Marriott, Langhorne offers a Sesame Place package, which I would highly 
recommend going with if you stay there for the purpose of visiting for 
A Very Furry Christmas or at any time that the park is open.
The Sesame Place package includes breakfast for 2 adults and 2 children along with 2 one day passes to Sesame Place and an adorable Rubber Ducky! 
Complimentary breakfast is not included while staying at this hotel. The breakfast is made to order and truly delicious. You can also purchase other food items throughout the day.

The Courtyard by Marriott, Langhorne lived up to our expectations of the Marriott brand. 
The rooms were clean and the hotel was very inviting. The rooms and all areas of the hotel that we visited were clean. That is very very important to our family. There was even an indoor pool. 
The huge perk to this hotel is the lobby. It is one of the most spacious lobbies I have seen within the Marriott chain. There is plenty of room to meet up with others from your party and spend time chatting or playing in the lobby, complete with fireplaces and televisions. Our family could have spent hours in the lobby!
If you are traveling to the Langhorne/Philly area you should definitely consider Courtyard by Marriott Langhorne, Pa. One last bonus to this hotel is that it is very close to a shopping area that included 
Babies R Us and several eateries. You can check out the hotel here.

HersheyPark Christmas CandyLane Celebrates Their 30th Anniversary! #HersheyPA #HersheyHoliday

HersheyPark Christmas CandyLane 
Celebrates Their 30th Anniversary
Now Through December 31
*Select Times/Dates
 #HersheyPA #HersheyHoliday
HersheyPark has always been a very special place close to my heart. I can remember visiting with my parents and Pa family as a child, during class trips as a teacher, and with my husband and family forever.
It’s a place to go where we can just enjoy family time and have fun! 
Recently we visited HersheyPark Christmas CandyLane in Hershey, Pa. Our family loves the Christmas spirit and try to celebrate with family and friends the entire season. HersheyPark Christmas CandyLane was a perfect sweet treat for us. If you have never been to HersheyPark during the Christmas season, you are definitely missing out on a lot of family fun. From the moment you arrive at the park you will immediately be overtaken for the brilliant lighting adorned overhead. Trees, landscapes, candy canes, little shoppes, all showing their holiday best! There is even a nativity set up as soon as you enter the park. 
Our first stop is always the Carousel! Everyone enjoys it, young and old the same. The smiles are flying and gets everyone into just the right mood. Of course the rides each have their own Christmas decorations. My forever favorite is Dinosaur-Go-Round. I am so blessed to still after all these years have a little one that can still enjoy that adorable Dinosaur complete with Santa hat!
Did I mention along with all this fun, you can also visit  Santa’s Stables which houses all of Santa’s flying friends. There is a guide at the stable with tons of information and stories to tell. Every question you have will be answered! While you are there you can enjoy some delicious hot cocoa and even take spin or two on the ice rink. Skate rentals are only $2.00, which makes it fun just to go around a few times!
After enjoying our time visiting the reindeer, we headed to see Santa! You can find Santa in the back by the Kissing Tower (I highly suggest you ride the Kissing Tower which overlooks HersheyPark and the entire Hershey area). Santa has his own workshop where you can spend time enjoying the elves working, toys, the good list-which Emily was thrill that her name was on, and of course pictures or just a visit with Santa!
The pictures are very reasonable and the background is picture perfect! 
One of the most festive parts of Christmas CandyLane had to be the light show, 
“NOEL-Nights Of Extraordinary Lights”. There are four different light shows that play down and around The Hallow. This synchronized light show features over 125,000 dancing lights and is truly breathtaking! The lights dance to all your favorite Christmas songs and believe me you will not be able to stop from dancing.
The show takes place every half hour. During our visit we caught it three times and loved each show!
If it’s chilly outside and you love shows make sure you do not miss out on this indoor Christmas musical, 
A Music Box Christmas!
If you have thought about visiting HersheyPark Christmas Candylane, do not hesitate.
You will not regret it at all and create memories to last a lifetime!
Visiting Christmas Candylane is like being transported into a fantasy Christmas Land!
Lights, music, rides, candy, hot cocoa, Santa and more. 
We have not stopped talking about it since our visit.

Le Top Adorable Clothing For Little Ones @LeTop #kidsfashion

Le Top
Adorable Clothing For Little Ones
Recently I was introduced to le top clothing for little ones. I was immediately in love with the entire site and so sad that Emily was at the tail end of the clothing sizes. le top clothing is for sizes newborn to 6x.
My daughter, who is in awe of anything leopard, was beside herself where her Born to Be Wild Faux Fur coat, hat and matching shoulder bag purse arrived! She could not wait to check them out. Of course the weather in our area was overly warm during Fall, so the minute a little bit of a chill took hold she grabbed for the coat, hat and purse and out the door she went.

She even convinced me it was a great school choice (for Fridays).  If you have a daughter, you know that they can be pretty choosy when it comes to clothing. It took me forever to find this out since my sons just wore whatever I chose.
It’s a whole new way of life for me now. Anyway, I wish I could turn back the hands of time and have found le top brand when Em was a tiny one. This line of clothing is just so adorable and well made.
If you are looking for clothes for a little boy or girl, look no farther.
