The Big Green Chair

I have had green chair envy since Dave and I first started dating. His parents had this most comfortable chair in their living room and for years now we've even referred to as my chair. Whenever asked what I would want for my birthday or Christmas I would always respond, "the green chair." Well, after patiently waiting the phone call I've been waiting for finally came!They were getting rid of the chair and wanted to make sure I was ok with that because surely I didn't really want it....um, nope not ok. The chair had to find a way here.Me: "Um, Dave, um could you drive to Cincinnati and pick up the chair."
Dave: "What?"
Me: "Seriously"
Dave: "Seriously?"
Repeat many, many times.

But he made the trip! Major brownie points for that one.
And after waiting my turn, I finally got to sit in the chair in my own living room!!!!

Yay! If you need to find me, check the chair!
See what I mean - it's like they don't even know it's not for them!
The new set-up.

The furniture came with some bonus spring clothes for the kids.
Taylor showing off one of her dresses over her pjs of course.
Chase showing off his new shirt - he calls it his number shirt.

The magical power of the chair put Taylor right to sleep last night. That, or maybe it was that she took a 15 MINUTE nap?!?! Seriously, Dave might have done a bunch of driving over the weekend, but we weren't exactly here snoozing!

Here's a peek at what we did while he was gone:

Waited for him!!

And waited for him some more!!!

Went out for donuts. They make anything better!

Bryce most enjoyed the trip!

Taylor trying to get another reach in the box.

Wish denied. Sad little girl.

Racing in the yard.

Chase is off. Bryce and Taylor are discussing whether or not he left early.

Bryce says, forget it and takes off himself.

Taylor saying "wait for me!!!!"

Bubbles - keeps their attention way longer than it does mine!

Probably did something sneaky judging by the look on his face!

Ahhhhh! Is daddy home yet??
Making a wish for him to hurry up and get home!
