A shopping we will go!

We went looking for furniture last night to replace all of the stuff we sold from our living room. Although we didn't buy anything, I think we found what we were looking for. Mr has been talking about and jonesing for a recliner forever now. We found a really comfortable one at La-Z-Boy. We also found this cool-shaped coffee table that matches the tv stand which we will probably get as well.

I also went to Macy's yesterday to see if I could use some gift cards for some stuff for the house while they were having their 1-day sale. I got some stuff, but the sales weren't as great as I had hoped. I love gift cards. I get the thrill of shopping without spending any money. Love it!

I also was looking for stuff for J's shower. I found some cute stuff, but only ended up buying a tablecloth and some napkins. I still can't decide on a theme--everything is so cute. Her invites have the ultrasound picture of the baby's feet (I'll show pics when I get them) so I thought baby feet would be a good theme, especially, as you all know, because I love little baby feet! They actually have decorations with baby feet! Here I thought I was being creative and came up with an idea no one else would have...yeah, right. Anyway, I'm trying to stick to the green and yellow colors since she's not finding out the sex. I got a generic mint green tablecloth with some pastel yellow napkins. It looks like Easter, but they are pretty.

I didn't end up fixing dinner last night since we were out shopping, but I'm definitely doing the Marlboro man sandwich and potatoes tonight. I've got to use the meat or it's going to go bad. I'll let you know how it turns out. If we're not starving, I may even get some pictures beforehand.

I can't believe how fast the summer is going already and it's not even officially summer. We are trying to plan different things during the weekends and I realized that we've got very few free weekends until the middle of August already! Where does the time go? Looks like it's going to be a busy summer.
