Jelly Belly Factory

Jeanine and Jason called us this morning and said they were going to the Jelly Belly Factory up in WI. We decided to join them. We waiting a very long time to ride the train. It was cute. They told us all about the making of the Jelly Belly's. After the tour, we got to try every kind. Dave tried soap. It was nasty he said. I tried Bacon. It really did taste like Bacon. The Superman picture was made of Jelly Belly's.

Haley's two french braids

Haley didn't take a nap today, but she did let me do two french braids in her hair. It was our first try! Joshua had to get in on the pictures too. What a ham!

Joshua's first snowman, James!

Joshua and his Daddy went out and played in the snow today while Haley took a nap. They built a snowman bigger than Joshua. They were outside for over 1 1/2 hours. Joshua decided to name him JAMES!

Grandma with her grandkids

We went out to Uncle Kenny and Aunt Nancy's tonight for Aunt Nancy's birthday party today. Here are two pictures of Grandma with all the kids (minus Briana). B was at dance, so she missed out on the picture..

Haley's new toy

Grandma and Grandpa bought this new toy for Haley. She loves it!

Christmas Night

We went to Papa and Grandma Trudy's house in the afternoon. Santa made a surprise visit to hand out all our gifts. And WOW, there were a TON OF THEM!! Joshua got a Leapster game which I just put the batteries in. And Haley got a bike and helmet! Haley also got a My Little Pony and Joshua got some books. Joshua's godparents (that would be Uncle Kenny and Aunt Nancy) bought him a Bears jersey. He will grow into that. Maybe even get Brian Urlacker to sign it when we see him at Target.
