.monday.

I've been a bad blogger lately. Sorry its been so long since my last post.
Josh got alot accomplished this weekend. He spent the past few days working on getting the tractor fixed. It ran low on oil and the engine started to knock. He order the parts he needed and they should be in this week. He pushed over an old dead cherry tree out front and cut it down. I was gone to Salt Lake Saturday afternoon and he kept the boys busy stacking wood for the winter.I left for a baby shower in Salt Lake at about noon Saturday. I got stuck in the worst traffic and the trip took me 2 hours! Argh.

I made my cousin's wife, Jill a baby blanket for their little one that is due in July. Jill was my across the street neighbor growing up...that's been fun. It turned out cute, I had a fun picking out girly material.









Afterward I convinced my Mom and Amy to come brave IKEA with me. I wish I took my camera if nothing more than to capture the madness!!! It was so busy and crazy, I hardly noticed though, I was having too much fun. I did make it nice not to have to worry about little boys while shopping.
We spent hours there. First you head up the escalator to the show floor upstairs. There you weave all over in and out of showrooms and displays before you go back downstairs where their products you just looked at are available to pick up and buy. The furniture is self serve in this huge warehouse and it's so compact that most of it you could probably fit into a car. When checking out I felt like I was going through customs at the air port...It was just HUGE. I escaped with a few treasures including a new bedspread for Josh and I. Yipee!

Well, I finally remembered my password so I could send you a comment.

Love, the bedspread, really good choice. The picture of the boys is great and I loved the picture of you caught in traffic. Love you!

Don't you love IKEA!!! When it came to Phoenix it was completely madness too but I love it! I love your bedspread! Makes me want to go get another one there-our bedroom is all adorned in IKEA too. :) Oh and I love Jill's quilt too-so crazy she is having a baby!
