Trip to Ikea

We recently got a computer (thanks again Dad!!), and needed a desk to house it. So for Valentine's Day, we decided that we would get each other a desk! I know you're probably thinking "how romantic", but it was something that we needed and wanted so I was completely fine with it. We ventured to Ikea in search of this desk along with Travis' mom and sister and her boys. I was actually kind of surprised when Travis suggested we go....of course I didnt' question it...hello, my husband just asked me if I wanted to go to Ikea! We (when I say "we" I mean the girls) had fun strolling through the store and shopping, and Travis and his nephew Jace had a blast playing all through the store. It all started with them going from game station to game station (props to whoever came up with that....little game stations periodically throughout the store for the impatient children....genious!). Jace absolutely loved those. He kept on asking for the games. Then when we got to the children's area, they found a tent to pretend to sleep in (there's a picture below). And finally when it came time to get all our purchases at the end, Travis had to find some way to appease the now screaming Jace (because there were no more games), so they took turns pushing each other on the carts! It was so cute, especially watching Jace try to push "Uncle Buddy!" We left with a great desk along with a couple other things...seriously I could spend so much money in that place!

Practical gifts are the best kind of gifts (sometimes). I too have a love for Ikea and could spend soo much money there that I have to avoid the place.

Travis, you're going to be an AMAZING dad! Thanks for being so good to my kids - they adore you!
