shopping spree

This past weekend, Joe and I went down to the big city. We spent the night at Cory and Whitney's place Friday night, then on Saturday we bummed around until we went to Jared's wedding (a freind of Joe's). We also got to see Jeff and Emily for a little while as well.

One place we went to was Babies R Us were we bought a stroller, a car seat, a bassinet pad, a sheet, and a Boppy cover. There were so many cute, cute things at that store and I wanted one of everything! I guess it was a good thing that Joe was there to keep my spending in line. =) Today we're both so exhausted and stayed home from church. I don't think Joe drank enough water while we were out and about in the sun (I think we both forgot how to exist in sunlight)and I think he got heat stroke. The poor guy has been sick all day today. It's a good thing he has such a nice, sweet wife to take care of him.


Joe's little brother gave Joe his old, almost antique, rear projection TV when Joe came to Logan. Well, I tried hooking up our portable DVD player to it to watch a movie on the "big screen" and accidently broke it. Whoops. Anyway, atop the TV sits some of our wedding photos and all of our plants that Ruth gave us and I didn't have anywhere else to put those things, so the TV had to stay. My practical side wouldn't just let a broken TV take up that much space in our already tiny apartment, so I had a vision of making it into an enterainment center instead. With the help of Joe, we took out the projectors (those things are beastly heavy), moved the screen to the back, rigged up some shelves, and viola! Instant entertainment center. HGTV would be proud!
