Illinois Trip - Part III

We rounded up our Illinois trip with a visit to my sister in Chicago. It was my nephew's 4th birthday and he was thrilled to have his cousins visit.

It was such a wonderful day that we walked to a nearby park and enjoyed playing police/jedi/superhero on the playground.


Deborah made sure that her cousin was safe crossing the streets.

Our final vacation event was to visit the Jelly Belly Warehouse in Wisconsin.

We took a tour of the warehouse and learned how they made Jelly Bellys. And the best part - they had a sample counter where you could get a sample of any candy that the company made. It was great!!

Looks like a wonderful vacation, with lots of fun activities!

Did you get my earlier request for the apple butter recipe?

Caleb definitely enjoyed having cousins to share his "Lightsaber battles" CD with. He has taken to calling Ashoka (one of the Jedi from Clone Wars) "Achoo Blessyou" which we find hysterical.
