Road Trip!

Jerry and I made our first joint trip to IKEA this past Sunday and let me tell you, this picture is no lie! Granted, we borrowed a Yukon and managed to fit everything inside the vehicle albeit barely....

As we stared at our 4 carts of flat-packed boxes in disbelief, we pressed on and made it all fit. Well, except for a few long boxes that had to stick out the back window....details.

This trip was particularly exciting for me because it was the first major shopping trip we have taken together and it was a lot of fun to pick things out that we both love. It helps, of course, that according to HGTV's design taste test, we both have similar "design styles". I know that must not be THAT exciting...but we really do like the same things and we're excited about it ok???

We've been staying up late to put everything together each night and I am really beginning to feel more than ever that we are settled into OUR house. (...in the middle of the street...) It's a good feeling.

Some of my favorite things from our trip? The ever exciting Expedit Bookcase and the Grundtal Mirror! Happy Shopping :-)
