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!

Yay, Sharon! So how's your new job so far? ;) I'm jealous you guys got to go to Edmonton. I hope you both had a lot of fun!

By the way, your new laundry room looks fabulous. I hope I get to see it by the time I get back, that you haven't sold your place yet. ;) I'm sure it will sell fast because you guys made it so prettyfull--I know I would buy it if it was here in Burnaby!! (Although it would cost about 10x more here too...)
