Crazy Swedes

So we decided to go to IKEA last Saturday morning and let me just say - holy crap! The place is HUGE! We spent 2 hours there and we didn't even see everything they had to offer. Of course we walked away with $100 worth of their stuff. Watching Elsa was like watching a kid in a candy store. I thought she was going to go into shock. She got all giggly and excited - it was just too funny to watch.

We are no longer officially newlyweds. We have now been married 5 years. Those 5 years have flown by, but I guess when you move 5 times in 5 years, that helps the time disappear. Of course, everything worked out on buying the townhouse so we will be moving again in a week or so. Why should our life begin to slow down and get boring at all? Why not move again? At least this time it's into a place of our own. It still doesn't seem real that we actually own a home. I'm sure the excitement will fade soon enough. Last night we bought a new stove for out home. It's one of the flat-top ovens. It should look great compared to the one we currently own. Momma Busse is also going to be coming up tonight to help us move some things over and get the rooms taped and painted. This will be a big chore. All of the rooms are currently a golden brown! Who in their right mind paints an entire house golden brown! Apparently the previous owner. So that's the big goal for the weekend - tape & paint. Hopefully it all gets finished so that next week we can move over our big items.

I'm sure there's more to talk about, but I'm having a brain fart right now since I've been up every morning at 5am to try and make up the hours I missed for closing on the house. If I happen to remember anything important I'll get it up here. Adios.
