Playing Catch-up 4

When the kids had Christmas break Jon was able to get most of those 2 weeks off from work. One of the things we did was go to the Jelly Belly Factory in Fairfield. Unfortunately the day we went they weren't actually making Jelly Bellies, but we got to take the tour anyway. They don't allow cameras on the tour so these are the only photos we have of our experience. We are definatley going to have to go back on a day when we can watch Jelly Belly making in action. Still it was fun and very worth the trip. There is nothing like spending time together as a family.

During the tour you are required to wear these paper hats.

Christmas flies by every year, but this year we almost missed it. 3 of us got the flu days before Christmas. Lucking we were all finished with it by Christmas Eve and we were able to celebrate properly.

This last summer Kristen moved into her own appartment and Trevor moved into his new bedroom. Here are the before and after shots. My kids seems to a very traditional boy and girl. Heather's room is all pink and Trevor of course wanted his room to be blue.

Once again it has been many months since I have updated my blog......so here we go. A while back on Facebook I mentioned that I was turning an old dresser into a Blanket Chest, so here it is. This Dressor with it's hard to open drawers has now been turned into what looks like a dresser, but only opens on the top. It is now the home of our many blankets and pillows.
