Utah Trip (part 3)

Monday afternoon we went to Lauri's house, way out on the west side of the valley.  She lives in Herriman.  They had a beautiful home, an awesome theater room, 4 cute kids, and a whole lot of stuff to give the LeFevres!  We came home with a fancy baby swing, beautiful crib, exersaucer, stroller/car seat travel system, complete crib bedding set, a box of diapers (!!), 3 super-capacity wash loads of baby boy clothing (including several sets of brand new clothes), baby shoes, hats, and other baby accessories.  In addition to all of that they also gave us a new Cabela's shooting/hunting Wii game and a new full-size bed-in-a-bag with an additional co-ordinating comforter.  After loading the truck, Lee (Lauri's husband) showed up with Cafe Rio lunch for all of us, and Lauri got out no less than 8-10 different types of ice cream for an ice cream sundae/banana split party.  We were overwhelmed with their generosity and kindness.  I felt ridiculous offering them some orange marmalade and homemade chili sauce, but it was all we could give them.  I told my girls that they better make some good friends in college, because the love comes around just when you need it the most!  

Here's our stop at the last 7-11 on the way north from UT.  We always like to stop and get a slurpee.  This is what the truck looked like on the drive home.



Again, a view of all the stuff we hauled back from Utah.  Good thing we had that yard sale to make room!



Lucky Emma benefited from the bedding set Lauri gave us.  She loves it!



This is the bed from IKEA.  We assembled the bed from 8:30 to 10:30 Monday night.  We were sooo tired!  These drawers give Lauren more space than her dresser did, so it was a great move.  The bed only cost $169!

This is the beautiful crib!  Landon just has to do some repair work on the drawer that fits under the crib, then it will be perfect.  Lauri even had a brand-new crib mattress shipped to us so that our baby wouldn't die of SIDS on a mattress that was too soft.  She's an amazing friend.
