New Furniture

We went up to Stillwater a few weekends ago to watch the Cowboys.

On our way home we couldn't help but stop at Mathis Brothers just to look.

We left with a purchase ticket for a new king sized bed & matress, a new dresser & bedding.

We bought it on a Sunday & it was delivered the following Wednesday. Brock & I have been sleeping on a full sized bed forever. It was time...

The bed actually has the canopy rails that go around the top (you can see them under the bed), but the delivery guys were missing the hardware that holds them on. I'm not heartbroken about it, I actually think we'll just leave them off (& move them out from under the bed of course), but I want to see what they look like before I make the final decision.

The TV takes the place of the big mirror that goes with the dresser.

So we had to find another home for it.

We didn't have to look too hard. I think it looks pretty good above

the buffet thing in the living room.



Our house is feeling more & more like a home, slowly but surely.
We need something above the bed & on the walls in the bedroom.
Some curtains, some color, & some different accessories for the dresser.
One step at a time, right?

Not My Grandma's Bowling Alley

We went with the Knapps to Shenaniganz last night. Good times, good times...

Matt & Liz...they take completely normal pictures.

Shenaniganz has really cool bowling balls. Do you see the 3 Stoogies? It's the simple things that make me giggle.

Check out the form. Yes, those are GIANT screens that played music videos all night. We bowled in the Z lounge (only for BIG kids). The big bowling alley that isn't in the lounge had the senior bowl playing on the screen. Pretty freaking cool.

I of course used the black & white stripey ball. Again, the simple things. :)

Liz & I... we take normal picutres...

Brock & I do not take normal pictures. Take 1.

Take 2...

Take 3...

Take 4...

Take 5...closer to normal. We might've had a little "aiming fluid" at this point
& it might be past our bedtime.

Take 6... not even close, funny though.

See, perfectly normal....

Two hour & three whole games...no one broke 300. Brock got better as the night went on. Matt went down hill. Liz blamed having a baby on her low score... Maybe I blame growing up in the bowling alley...wait, then I should have rocked & I clearly didn't.

Matt did rock at skeeball...or maybe the game was busted.

And he won Liz a crown, but the prize store thing had already close. Sad story.

We'll have to get it next time.

One last try for a normal picture, maybe we aren't normal, but clearly we had A LOT of fun. And I really like my new funky hat. :o)
