I scream, u scream, we all scream for ice cream

So we left for Houston on friday. We decided to go tour Blue Bell. We had heard that there might be a wait for a tour, so we got there early. Turned out we were set for the 12:45 tour. It was 12:20 and we were waiting for our tour. We had not had lunch yet, because we figured if we had a long wait we could always eat while we waited. The boys were hungry, so daddy bought them a scoop of Cookies and Cream to share while we waited.
We departed on our tour and got to see them make Rocky Road, Strawberry, Moollenium Crunch, Buttered Pecan, and ice cream sandwiches. Did you know that one machine can make 120 sandwiches per minute? It was really cool to see them pour all the ingredients in gigantic quantities. At the end of the tour you get a scoop of ice cream, so John David had Rainbow Sherbet, Sammy had Cookie Dough, JP had Southern Blackberry Cobbler, and I had Caramel Turtle. (Carlos just got a bit from everyone.) While we were eating the ice cream, John David said that he got to eat two scoops of ice cream before lunch. JP and I just commented how that was their lunch. We figured that after two scoops of ice cream they were full enough to make it to The Woodlands.
