On the seventh dayt of Christmas it's time to get away, it's off to Tillamook for the day!
If I know my husband (which I like to think I do!) then I know that he has a particular weakness for Black Licorice flavored ice cream made by Tillamook Ice Creamery. I thought that it would be a lot of fun to sneak away for a day and go for a drive and get some ice cream. After the fiasco that was June's dayt I knew we needed to make the plans early and I'm glad we did because it turned out that there was only 1 day the whole month where the both of us would actually be able to sneak away. How sad is that? I am so ready for this crazy schedule to let up!
The drive was fun and left us with plenty of time for talking....about more than just what happened that day or what is going on with the kids!
It was quite the line for ice cream, but well worth the wait! We of course went through the self-guided tour and watched the workers making cheese. I am a sucker for seeing how things are made....that was the only good part of Mr. Rogers!
Which flavor to choose.....
In the end we each got 3 scoop samplers (nice and healthy lunch, right?) and Andrew also got a double scoop of his black licorice. I had to force myself to finish up the last of my 3 scoops....the Stotts sure can handle their ice cream!!!

Oh, the joys of dating after marriage! I am jealous you guys get out as much as you do. I, too am a sucker for licorice ice cream. They actually have a 5 qt. bucket of it at the store made by a local creamery! So tempted! Only Caleb would eat it with me and that's a lot of ice cream! What a fun day!
