Jellybelly Factory

Katie, Brian and I were talking the other night and decided we should go to the Jelly Belly Factory over Christmas break. It is a free tour, and gas is cheap enough where it would be worth the drive. Who's in?

Grandma Bond is still giving presents...

Over the Thanksgiving weekend the Bond girls got together at Aunt Besty's and went through Grandma Bond's jewelry.

It was funny to see HOW MUCH she had collected over the years and we wished she was there to tell us the stories of the pieces: "this one came from a garage sale, this one Bob ordered from a catalog, and this one..."

My camera decided that it was out of batteries so the only pictures I got were on my phone, so bare with me.

The next three pictures are of the 3 tables covered by the jewelry.


I think we all came away happy and some of the girls even grabbed some great stuff to make the jewelry Christmas trees like Uncle Allen used to make.

I got some great necklaces and earrings, but this ring my favorite!
