After our two hours of tennis on Saturday morning, we came home to have lunch and to clean up quickly.  Rohan had invited the boys to go play at his house, so we dropped them off before we headed to Ikea.  Our goals were to look for a bookshelf for Logan and search for closet solutions for the boys’ room and Stuart’s office.  Stuart and I were excited to take our time to shop this time without the boys.  We spent time looking everywhere in the showroom and got many cool ideas.  We started thinking about furniture for part of the game room, either a couch or a table.  The boys are growing taller and our small Ikea kid table is getting too small for Logan.  We finally decided on getting a table and some chairs.  We also found a good bookshelf for Logan, some blankets and a bench shoe rack.  But unfortunately we knew we could only fit a few things in the car, so we had to skip the bookshelf and the shoe rack this time.  We also had to drive all the way home to drop off the boxes before returning to pick the boys up.  When we arrived at their house, we sat and talked with Vrinda for awhile before going home. 

    Despite being tired out all day, Stuart decided to start putting the table together since the boys were out playing “Kick the can” anyway.  The boys were very happy with the idea of a new and bigger table, especially Logan.  This morning, Logan was thrilled to use his Chromebook on the table.  So I decided to join him for some reading, then Stuart brought his laptop to watch a soccer game.  Connor wanted to join the family table too and tried to play his XBox game in a distance.  In the afternoon we played a board game and it was refreshing to spend some time in a part of the house where we are not usually together.
