Last minute Christmas shopping...


Christmas is almost here and I think we have everything covered in the gifts department.  I wanted to check out one thing at IKEA so Lorien, Wyatt, Adell and I made our way to Emeryville on a Saturday to endure IKEA.  I let Lorien drive.  No one died but we all took turns gripping the handles in the car as tightly as we could.  She needs some more practice.

Lorien dyed her hair bright red for Christmas...very festive.  All of the grout in my bathroom is pink.  Grrrrrr...





It was fun to cruise around IKEA for a bit with three kids.  We admired furniture and made dream bedroom plans.  After IKEA (where all three kids unanimously agreed, Daddy would want the cheapest option, not the biggest one) we went to lunch together.  Fed and happy we decided to walk around the outdoor mall.  I'm a sucker so I picked up a few more present items for the kids and Adell bought her sibling gift for Clare. 

It really was a nice afternoon.  Lorien got some driving practice and we all got some time together.  Lorien, Wyatt, and Adell is not a grouping of kids that happens naturally.  Usually, we group by age.  This was a fun change.
