Busy week...and it is only Tuesday!

Whew, it will be nice when this week ends! Robert left for Aviano, Italy at the "crack of dawn" on Friday! He wrestled with his injured shoulder...but he won! Now he is paying the price. Hopefully he will download his pictures so I can post a few! He was due home Sunday afternoon...but wait...the phone rings at 0230 Sunday morning....he will be dropped off in 30 mins??!! eek

Nick played in his 2nd Basketball game of the season...at first it looked like they were going to get outplayed but we managed to get into sync in the 2nd quater and win the game 29-21...not too shabby!

Here's the tip-off:


Waiting for the rebound:


The weekend was spent assembling our new IKEA furntiure. That was a process, especially since we didn't have all the pieces right away....a couple of items had to be ordered. Although John may disagree, assembling wasn't nearly as hard as moving the furniture around 150 times, trying to figure out how to make it all work. Finally after a week of pushing, lifting, rearranging, we are finally happy with the results! We are so pleased with how it looks. Even though I love IKEA's office furniture and beds--we NEVER thought we would buy real honest to goodness living room furniture from them. Thier stuff is so minimalist and modular, but this new Liatorp line is definitely a change from the same old IKEA stuff! We even had enough time to install a new dining room light fixture (also from IKEA)...



We have a 4 day weekend starting Friday and we are planning to go to Cheb, Czechoslovakia for some flea market shopping...should be fun!
Hopefully, we will get some good pictures to post!
Have a great week!

Ooh, I'll have to look for your vacation pics! My g-grandparents came from a town near Kosice, Slovakia.

Kristine,
You will have to visit in the future for the pics from Cheb. We had every intention of going this weekend but we couldn't tear ourselves away from a quiet house and no outside plans! Maybe next month!
