IKEA = a wonderful home furnishing mega-store with really cool, stylish and innovative ideas for home. The downside of IKEA - the closest one is 3.5 hours away in Minnesota. But the drive isn't bad with Tim and Andy as good company! We left "early" Saturday morning and arrived around noon. We checked out the deals at Room and Board, and then hit IKEA. It was mild chaos, like usual there, but we found lots of goodies! We also went to the mall ("and it sucked!!"), picked up a few items, and went to "Bed, Bath, and Beyond," otherwise known as "Storables." And we ended the trip with a yummy dinner at the Macaroni Grill, served by Paul, the total tool! IKEA is the best!

Me in the closet system of my dreams at IKEA! I waaant that!
Andy & Tim load up Amy's TV stand in the warehouse area of IKEA. Lift with your legs, boys!
Our car-full of goodies - and the 1/3 backseat I got to ride 3 hours in!
Oh, IKEA, you are wondeful!
Thanks for bringin' back the goods, kids!
