I scream, you scream...

We, as in myself, Lucy, Edy, Sara, Ethan, Savanna, Angela and Emeline (who were visiting Sara from MN.) drove about an hour west to Brenham (all in one car by the way!)to take a tour of the Blue Bell factory...we heard they had free samples, ha! It was a lot of fun, but cameras were not allowed. We watched a little movie clip of how Blue Bell got started and their history, which was really neat and then we toured the factory where it all comes together. They were in the process of making chocolate cookie dough balls to put in the cookie dough ice cream, yum. But the best part is the end of the tour when you get a free cup of ice cream!!! I had birthday cake, which was amazing. It was as if you were at a birthday party and got a scoop of ice cream and cake on your plate and mixed it together and froze it, really good.

In front of their first "refrigerated" truck way back when.

Sharing some strawberry ice cream.

The kids in front of the famous cow and girl with their ice cream parlor hats on!
