Weeee're Baaaack!

Okay, probably most of you didn't even know we were gone, but we were out of town this weekend. We randomly decided to leave on Saturday for Edmonton - we were there for 3 days. It was great to take a break and just do whatever the heck we felt like. Did a bunch of shopping (to Sharon's great delight and Frank's dismay...) and met up with Matt & Scarlett, which was really great. We totally can't wait for their wedding in July - Frank is a groomsman, Sharon's reading, and the wedding is in Salmon Arm...and weddings are so much better when it's your friends getting married and not like a cousin you hardly know or something.

So anyways, we took the obligatory trip to Ikea and bought a double bed and bedside tables (yes, the bedframe and mattress both fit in our car, with all of our other junk - we love Ikea!). The sole purpose of this double bed is to make our bedroom look the size it actually is - our honking queensize bed took up the whole room. Plus we will use the double as a guest bed in our next place. So if you want to come visit us, you will now have some place to sleep.

And, when we got home, there was a message on our machine - Sharon officially starts her job a the RCMP tomorrow at 8:00am!

On to the laundry...

We're finally done the laundry room! It's really girly. Haha. Check it out:



It's so awesome, there's no spiders or anything! Sure took long enough, though. Note to selves: hire a drywall guy next time!

So, my dad got a new car...it's a Porche. He bought it from a Australian living in Japan who's name is Lucky. Don't ask :) It's an awesome car! I want one.



So, we just had a "chat" with our real estate agent, and it looks like we'll be selling our place in March or April. So, on with the final renos! Nothing big left to do, just a few baseboards and a closet for our bedroom.

And then the house hunting starts again. Oh boy.
