Tada! Our new couch arrived this morning via the Rory and Chris Express. Yay! It looks perfect! I love it. It's a tad smaller than our old couch, but it gives us more space behind the couch (which, let's face it, is really where we needed it....ha.) Nonetheless...looks good don't it? Where the old couch was banished...I mean moved to. The sun … [Read more...]

We were on the hunt today. For a couch. We took off this morning, Aunt Nae Nae in tow, to San Jose for the great sofa search. Alright, we went to two stores.

We ruled out … [Read more...]

Tonight the Lance kids hopped in the suburban for the yearly look-at-lights ride around Gilroy. Rory was kind enough to stay home and watch his DVR'd shows...I mean the baby while I went with my fam. Don't feel bad for him. We wouldn't have fit in the car anyways. Wow it's snowing! nah, just the flash going off in the rain. The 12 days of … [Read more...]

Except … [Read more...]
