Back Surgery & IKEA

This past weekend, we made a trip over to Hank's sister's house and spent a night. Then we headed over to Atlanta to see his Dad who had surgery on his back. I don't remember the exact reason, but in simple terms, he had a broken back. He looked pretty good considering and didn't complain much... I mean, I would have been, I think! He has a long recovery ahead, so if you think about it, say a prayer for him.

After he was discharged we had nothing really planned, but discovered we were only 11 miles from IKEA, so we headed over. How fun!! We checked the boys into their store play area complete with a huge ball pit, coloring station, games, and room to run! Then Hank and I headed up to the first floor. After an hour we had made it through the first floor, but not very thoroughly. We had to pick the boys up, so we went down, got them and then looked on the lower level... this time even less thoroughly than the first floor. We ended up with a couple of light fixtures and some household odds and ends... and plans to come back sans (without) kids! :)

It was a fun, slow paced weekend and I had so much fun!
