Sacramento trip

I love to go to California and see my grandmothers. We didn’t have a car big enough so Burton got to stay home and play with friends.  This summer my dad offered to pay for gas so we could go. It was the same price as 1 plane ticket; which he would have paid to get himself there, but this got us there. He even helped with the kids whenever he was with us. Dad had to drive most of the way since I was in the back keeping Peter from screaming; he doesn’t like being in the car seat long. The trip there was 15 hours, back was only 13… detours and more potty breaks.

While we were there Peter got a rash, I finally went and got an antihistamine and it cleared it right up. It never bothered him or anything. Thank goodness I had grandma to keep me calm and give me ideas.

The Jelly Belly Factory! You get a tour that takes about 40min with samples all along the way. Then they give you a free bag of Assorted Jelly Beans at the end. It was fun.

Then on to Fairy Tale Town:

  This is the program from the last time we went… it’s pretty much the same.  They built this place when my dad was a kid and he went to it. Then when I was little my mom and dead took my siblings and I also. Now I get to tale my kids.
