Preschool was supposed to be at my house today, however, yesterday I got the IKEA ad in the mail and they had these stools on sale:

We need new stools for the kitchen....so we planned a field trip...to IKEA!!!

It was a lot of fun! Mechelle, Marnae, and I (and our kids) headed down this morning at 8:30 am! We met one other mom down there (none of the others could come...which just means we will definitely have to plan more trips!)

We didn't get home until 3:30pm..it was a full day of shopping, visiting, and fun! The kids got a little cranky at the end (OK 3 or 4 or more of them were screaming their heads off...we got some looks! We were TRYING to leave...it just takes an hour...that store is huge...and it's a maze...they like to trap you in there!) But it was still fun!!!
This is what your car looks like when you leave IKEA:

And this is what your kids look like:
