Today we shopped 'til we were all ready to drop. Seriously. We left at about 10 am and didn't get home until after 10 pm. The boys did amazingly well and we rewarded them with a new Wii game. We gave them a 20 dollar limit but they were still able to find a game they wanted. It is a monster truck racing game. I hope it is fun for them. It even came with a steering wheel.
Anyway, I'm sure ya'll are thinking shopping all day sounds great. Well think again. It wasn't fun shopping. Well for Hubby it was maybe fun shopping but not for anyone else. We got things like this:
and this:

And ladies, don't let men say they don't comparison shop b/c they do. Atleast mine does. We started out dropping the van off at Walmart for tires and an oil change and then walking over to Lowes. We shopped around there and tried to order new siding for the house (which is why we bought the above items) but we didn't have all the measurements we needed. Of course, we couldn't buy the nail gun and compressor their b/c we had to shop around. So after leaving Lowes and going to pick up the van we went to eat. Now, Hubby did treat us for lunch. He took us here:

MMMMM MMMMM good!
Then we went to the library to turn in the boys story time papers and then we went to Home Depot for more comparison shopping and then we went to Sears where we bought the compressor and then we went back to Lowe's where we bought the gun and then to McDonalds for dinner and a few minutes play time and then to Walmart for a few essentials and the boys prize for being good. It has been a long day. Then I had to get home to pack up some scrapbooking stuff and wash a load of laundry b/c tomorrow (today actually) I am spending the day with my scrapbooking buddies the Georgia Peaches! I'm looking forward to the fun and relaxing scrapping day but I have to be up in 5 hours!!!! Ok well I've caught you all up and my wash is done so I'm off to bed.
Oh yeah, Pictures of the boys refinished room are coming as soon as we get the doors hung back up:) And I will post pictures of the siding project as we go.
Night now.
