When we arrived home from our Sun Valley trip, we were SO excited to unload the UHAUL from Opa & Oma. When they moved from Southern CA to Northern CA, they got rid of a LOT of their things, but before they did, they asked the kids if anyone wanted to keep anything they were getting rid of. We asked if they would save a few things for us when we got back from Germany.
We wanted the rocking chair that crossed the plains with the pioneers, the antique bed from Europe, & the grey couch (because our couches are dead).
Bladen gets to use the antique bed. It's interesting because it's a European bed so it's not the same size as a typical twin or double bed. It's right in between. Eventually we'll need to get a European mattress to fit it, but a twin mattress fits inside with room on both sides. He loves it, even if the mattress doesn't fit perfectly. He said it makes him feel like a ruler or king.
We were all SO happy to have a couch in the house. After sleeping on the floor for what feels like months, having somewhere to actually sit was amazing. That couch was EVERYTHING to us during that time.
The other thing we brought back from Sun Valley was a horrible allergic reaction from a bug bite. Poor Craiger is like me when it comes to bugs. . . no matter how big or small the bug, when they bite, you swell big time. Poor guy got a bite on his cheek & was swollen for a full week!
It felt good to be home.
