The walls are closing in on us here in Provo. Why? Well, because we keep inheriting more stuff! It seems like our apartment gets smaller by the week. Haha. But it's all with good reason. Someday we'll have somewhere to put it all, right?
So here's the story of our desk. Mom and Kerry own a condo here in Provo, it's where all of us kids that are going to BYU lived before we each got married. Bryan and Emily just moved out of it so that Bryan could do an internship in New York, so now the condo is empty and Mom and Kerry are selling it. (So if you know of anyone interested in a condo in Provo...) They came down last week to clean it all out and get it ready to be shown. They'd taken out most of the furniture already, but there was still this desk that used to be Kerry's. They were just planning on leaving it at the house for the people who bought it. Well, Aaron has been wanting a nice desk for a long time, so we spoke up. And they gave it to us. Yay! Thanks Mom and Kerry. You have made all of Aaron's studying dreams come true, because now he can study at the desk, instead of at the kitchen table. Amazingly enough the desk fit in my mom's Rav4 so we even had it delivered! Then, after the kids were in bed, Aaron and I spent about 2 hours rearranging the furniture in the living room so that it looked just right. After all that all we ended up doing was putting the desk where the love seat used to be and putting the love seat under the window where nothing used to be...but hey, we got a good work out sliding the couch with the hide-a-bed in it all over the place. :) So that is the story of how we got our new desk.

Gotta love cramped quarters! Ha ha One day when we have houses and lots of room we'll look back and laugh at the times we had to squish all of our donated furniture into such small places! :-) I can definitely sympathize
