Scooper Bowl

There's no doubt about it, the Wuehler family LOVES ice cream! It was the first food item we moved into our freezer. It was among the first solids Liesel really enjoyed. It's no wonder we were eagerly looking forward to the Jimmy Fund's Annual Scooper Bowl last week.

In our humble opinion, the Scooper Bowl ranks up there with winning the lottery. We paid our flat fee of $8 per person, collected our spoons and headed off to the tents of cool deliciousness. Haagan-Dazs, Brighams, Ben & Jerry's, Baskin Robins, Hood, Garelick, Edy's, Breyers and a new favorite Spasso Gelato all had cups with tiny scoops of well, different flavors of heaven.

Liesel's young enough to get in for free but she ended up eating enough ice cream for a regular person. Brent had her in the Snugli and if he didn't give her ample shares of whatever he was eating she was sure to let him know about it. This was also Whitney's first Scooper Bowl and she was appropriately impressed. We walked away with the best of sugar highs. I wish I could say we do it for the good cause but the truth is we just do it for the ice cream.

saying the wuehlers love ice cream is like saying einstein was kind of smart.
i've never seen a freezer so jam packed with delicious ice cream.

That sounds like so much fun! Jim and Isaac would have been in HEAVEN. They are almost ice cream addicts.
