On Tuesday, the boys had their last day of school, Micah had to work, and Cara had a doctor's appt. So, since we were on our own for most of the day, we decided to head over to Vermont and visit the Ben and Jerry's Factory!

First thing we were greeted by was this huge Ben and Jerry's bus! Wish that bus stopped on my street daily!!

We, of course, had to take the tour, right? We were outside the door waiting, so I took a quick shot of the kids by the ice cream flavors display. Yum! Hard to choose just one!

The tour was fun, but the best part was getting the free sample at the end! We got to try "Late Night Snack" by Jimmy Fallon. It's got carmel swirl with chocolate-covered potato chips chucks. Delish! You can see, it's a pretty big factory!

We left the plant and went up the hill to the playground and the flavors' graveyard. These hold all the old/retired flavors.

Livie picked out her favorite - Wild Maine Blueberry. It didn't last long, but sure does sound yummy!

Noah was greatly mourning the loss of Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough. I mean, who wouldn't? It lasted only a brief 4 yrs.

Madie was crushed to see Purple Passion Fruit had left us a decade ago, only having graced this earth for a short 5 yrs.

The only thing that could take away the sadness of deceased ice cream flavors was to go eat some ice cream that was still amongst the living. Noah's face says it all! Flavor of choice? Cinnamon Bun!! There was a fight to get the biggest pieces, let me tell you! It was a fun morning for us.
