Couches in Chicago...

We have been really lucky, and fallen into some great furniture deals lately. Earlier this week we received an email from Dusty regarding some furniture a family friend was selling (too difficult to explain how we are linked to this person, and it is her job to sell this furniture, to make a long story short). But anyway, we really liked it and the price was right. So it was delivered to Dusty's condo on Wednesday, and we needed to go pick it up asap, as Dusty's condo isn't the biggest to be storing extra furniture.

Therefore, Saturday afternoon, we took a trip down to Chicago to pick up the couch and loveseat and visit with Dusty and Julie a bit. I was even lucky enough to talk Ed into stopping at the outlet mall in Kenosha on the way down. So we arrived at Dusty's just before 4pm, ordered some pizza for dinner, and then took a short walk for some ice cream before heading home. The day went rather smoothly, Rowan slept on the way to Kenosha, we had lunch and shopped, she slept from Kenosha to Chicago, we had dinner and hung out, got ice cream, and she slept the entire ride home. And still went to bed without a problem, and we even got the couches home in one piece!
