Sweet factory and Ikea

Josh had Monday and Tuesday off this week. So, we decided to take a trip down to Ikea. Brieanne wanted to come, so she came with us for the day. Right before we left, I got a call from Sweets candy factory about a tour request I had submitted a while back. They said that they had an opening that afternoon. So, we decided to go there on the tour before we went to Ikea. The girls were super excited.




It turned out to be a lot of fun. They first have you put on a hair net and lock up all your personal belongings. Very attractive. LOL. Good thing no pictures are allowed. I think I rocked it anyway. He he he. Well, as best as is possible. We saw the packaging and atorage area, the sugar section, the taffy section, different candy sections and sorting and packaging. Suffice it to say, there was a LOT of sugar in that building. LOL. At the end of the tour, you get to go into their candy shop and get candy for way cheap. We took pictures outside to upload to their facebook. They said they pick the best ones of the week and they get free candy. So, we'll see.






After the tour, we went to Ikea and got a new bookshelf and a new wok. LOL. I love Ikea! They have cute things at a VERY affordable price. When we got home, we set up the new bookshelf. However, the next day we discovered that our TV was broken. GRRR!!! So, we had to move our downstairs TV upstairs. It's fine and really not that big of a deal, but just very annoying.
