Trippin'

So a couple of weeks ago we were able to take a mini-vacay and decided to explore some of the towns north of the Bay Area. The girls were excited, as this meant 'special rooms' (hotels) and a promised trip to the Jelly Belly Factory.

It was pretty fun and the girls loved the bag of goodies at the end of the tour best of all! You can't take photos inside the factory (can't let that recipe for Buttered Popcorn or Skunk flavor slip I guess!), so these shots will have to do. Crazy how many beans they make every day and you almost can't take it in when you see it. Joe especially liked the Ronald Reagan connection - I guess they invented the blueberry flavor just so he could have red, white & blue beans on his desk!

P.S The hats were mandatory.

If you're ever in that part of CA, be sure to also visit the towns of Pleasanton & Fairfield - super cute & quaint with amazing scenery. No pics of that, but take our word for it!
