We had a fun weekend!
Friday after work we went into town to try and look at some couches. Vallerie went with us. The first place we went was lay-z-boy. Vallerie had such a good time running around the store. I didn't get a chance to look at anything because I was following her the whole time. She wasn't like a crazy kid knocking stuff over or anything. She just wanted to walk/run. She mostly stuck to the path around the show floor.
After that we went to Star Furniture. Vallerie once again wanted to walk around. This time she got a little more fussy when we tried to move her in a certain direction and pick her up, so we cut that trip a little short and went home.
After Vallerie was in bed we finished up one of our video games. By the time we were done it was like 2am. That is really really late for us so were were both pretty tired.
Saturday we dropped Vallerie off at Eddie's sisters and went out by ourselves to look at more couches. We went to 5 stores and ended back up at Star Furniture where we bought our new couch. It's a sectional with a chase lounge, and it is HUGE! The longest piece (if put together correctly) is 12 feet. We had Eddie's other sister and her husband bring it to our house since they have a trailer and a big truck, so we didn't have to pay for shipping. By the time Eddie and his brother in law got it in the house it took us about 4 hours to get it in and moved around in a way that we weren't blocking any doors in the living room. It's not exactly put together the way it was in the store. We just didn't have enough wall space, but the good thing is we can move it around in pieces. It's kind of a couch bed now... I took some pics but haven't put them on the computer yet.
Sunday we were planning on cleaning the house because we had to move our other furniture in the dining room and there was a lot of stuff from the cabinets in our entertainment center that we had to take out so we could move it around. We didn't really get to do that because Eddie's sister wanted to hang out. I did the dishes before they came over and we just left the other mess there. They stayed for a few hours and Eddie cooked dinner.
I forgot to mention that Saturday we also went to Walmart to get the last 2 Harry Potter movies. Turns out they aren't producing the dvd's anymore, so once they are gone there wont be any more. We were upset because Walmart didn't have any, and we thought we would have to buy them online for an insane price. Eddie's sister found them at Meijer so she bought them for us and brought them over on Sunday.
After Eddie's sister and family left, we watched one of the Harry Potters and went to bed. I think we'll watch the other one tonight. Neither of us has seen it, so I know that I am pretty excited to see it. I think Eddie is too. We were going to watch it last night, but I was too tired and knew I would fall asleep.
Working from home today and then I have 3 days off. I am going to take a few vacation days and relax and clean the house. I originally took them off to go couch shopping, but since that is done I'm just going to do whatever.
My new cricut cartridges should be here this week, so I'll probably start on Eddie's sisters invitations. I will have to take her to Hobby Lobby to pick out some paper. I might mess around with the design first.
That's about all there is for now.
