It's Good To Be Home

After our very tiring experience at the Mall of America on Saturday I was a bit hesitant about shopping at IKEA the next day. Luckily I had my list and knew *about* where everything was so I could get bin numbers to pick up the big items. We were able to zip through within and hour and fifteen minutes. And I only got a few things that weren't on my list. Even so I spent over $400... It was a big list.

Then it was lunch at Panera with my good friend Sheri and her daughter. Brenna loves to see her daughter and we were able to enjoy lunch. Of course there is never enough time to really dig in and talk about everything. Hopefully we will get to spend time together around Christmas.

The drive home was L O N G. Four stops for potty. Of course two of them were false alarms, but you don't tell a 3-year-old no.

Needelss to say, we all collapsed into bed early and slept hard.

It's good to be home.
