Tuesday morning, we played outside and at the park for a super long time to get all our energy out before our long drive home. We left Jacob and Lisa's at 11:30 and drove about an hour north to the Jelly Belly Factory. It was a lot of fun to go through! The kids did great waiting in line for the tour....especially since there was a sample bar that they kept going to for jelly bean samples!
The rest of the day was pretty uneventful. The kids watched movie after movie in the car, played with more gifts that they received hourly, wrote secret notes to us, stopped for dinner in Redmond at a Burger King with a great play place. We stopped in Ashland at 8:30pm for gas and had the kids change into their pajamas. They fell asleep in the car for the last 4 hours of the trip. It was a little uncomfortable for Erika.....she had some trouble falling asleep in her seat....but eventually she found a great spot. We pulled into our driveway at 1:15am. Sarah then drove herself home and the kids and I went right to bed. They slept in until 7:30 the following morning and we spent all of Wednesday unpacking and getting some rest.
The aftermath of cleaning out the backseats of the car. I can't believe we had enough room for the kids amidst all the junk!
It was a great spring break trip! I was very glad to see where Jacob and Lisa live and for the kids to get to play with Molly and Ellie. The kids did such a great job travelling that it gives me hope for future trips!
