IKEA

I know it's crazy, but we haven't been to IKEA. Honestly, I judged the store before every stepping foot in it. I assumed it was overpriced and outside of my tastes. I was wrong. Saturday I talked Chad into riding down there. It is very easy to get to and had covered parking. We weren't able to spend as much time browsing as I would have liked, but I will be back with a loaded wallet.

I didn't come away empty handed. Well, I did, but the kids didn't! They each got a new stuffed dog and some neat finger puppets. I also got a really cool magnet board for the kids' toy room. I made a running list of all the goodies I want, and Chad did, too.

So be sure to check them out. You, too, may be surprised with what you find floating around!
