Well, this has been a very fun week! My mom flew in on Sunday the 10th just in time for my choir concert. I was preforming as a soloist in "The Creation" by Franz Joseph Haydn. My in-laws picked her up at the Phoenix airport and came to sacrament meeting with us. We had dinner and then we all went to the concert. All except Mark. :( Mark had to go to New Mexico for some more training, so he came to my dress rehearsal the night before.
The concert went really well.
Because Mark was out of town, my mom and I had the week together. We went shopping TONS! Then my mom took me to Phoenix to had an Endoscopy done. They were checking my acid levels and looking for Celiac. So far, so good. All I have is some extra acid in my stomach. So then we went shopping more. I found a dress for me and a tie for Mark to wear to his brothers wedding in two weeks. On Thursday, we went to a whole bunch of thrift stores, hoping to find something really fun. We went to a store called All About Furniture. They sell things on consignment. Anyway, we walked in and right there in front of us was a RED couch and loveseat for $499. I fell in love. We decided to go look at some furniture stores to make sure it was a good deal and we found the EXACT set for $1000. We couldn't believe it. So we went back and I talked the manager of the store down to $425. I called some guy friends of ours and they came and got them and carried them into our house for us. I LOOOVE them!
Before . . . not my favorite, but ok.
After . . . LOVE it!
I have been wanting to add some turquoise to our bedroom for a long time, so we went and bought some flowers and I am trying to figure out some cute pillows. I love the look of red and turquoise together.
Overall it was a very fun week. I can't wait to see everyone for Easter.

That's so awesome that your mom got to come visit! I bet the two of you had a blast. I love your new couches. Did you save your old ones? I remember you saying you were going to have those forever (but eventually in your basement). I'm glad your concert went well. We can't wait to see you soon!
I saw your Mom right when she got back and she told me about those couches! They are cuter then i even imagined they would be! How fun!
