the essence

We made a fabulous trip to Ikea on Monday. I'm so anxious to get the store in Orlando now, I think it opens in October! It was absolutely fabulous, I could spend so much money there.

Addison & me ready to start our Ikea adventure.




I loved this floor lamp - definately not kid friendly!




Ruth & I stuck our girls in the "blueberry basket" they have for kids. I tried to disregard how filthy they probably were! Here are Karine & Addison.






We also ate lunch at the Ikea cafe - Ray & I shared the Swedish meatballs.




I used some of my Christmas money to buy this set of 6 mugs & saucers. They're nice & small & light green.




Ray took care of the girls & calmed them down on the drive home.




It was hard work!
