i love this version of All About That Bass!!

i could get lost watching all those videos by them!
it’s so fun to hear all those songs in a different way!

and then i saw this same song with Jimmy Fallon and the Roots…

jimmy fallon just seems so darn happy all the time doesn’t he?

 

and THEN i saw the Seseme Street theme song with jimmy!!! can you not just smile so big when you watch that?

it’s a big deal if you aren’t close to one.
and if you have a gift card!
i sped through as fast as i could finding all kinds of fun things.
and my outfit matched my purchases.
i finally got  light for talby’s bedroom… the black gingham fabric is for curtains… new pillow cases…
so much inspiration in that place.
and i didn’t even LOOK at any of the rooms they have set up.
i was on a time crunch and was focused.   ha ha ha

and i am home from the storyline conference and a special weekend with friends!
today is annie’s birthday and i admit i am a little unprepared.
and i am kinda tired in every ounce of my body.
but today is not the day for that.
so i am off to get stuff done.
sleep will have to wait.  🙂

have a super monday!

 

Nancy - Correction: the Kansas City IKEA is in Merriam, Kansas. It’s just off I-35; exit at Johnson Drive. It is open daily and is much more aesthetically appealing than the one in the Twin Cities.

Jacci in Ohio - Very fun 🙂 We used that IKEA chandelier in my daughter’s nursery. I took clllllll the little plastic crystals off and spray painted it red. I love it!

Jen - Love reading your blog! Would love to hear ideas you have for your kids for Christmas this year….you always have great gift ideas!

Jill - I am planning a not-so-secret trip to IKEA to jam a whole couch in my van. 😉

Kerri - Well, now you can plan a trip to the IKEA in Lenexa, KANSAS – it opened mid-September. I haven’t been able to go yet and I only live 80 miles away.

Kate @ Songs Kate Sang - Happy birthday, sweet Annie!

Lori - I hope my birthday buddy had a great day! Btw, fun socks!
IKEA envy….

Toni :0) - Meg, I LOVE the videos you post. They always make me laugh or just plain happy. Thank you!! IKEA is about 20 minutes from me, I rarely go because the maze to get through there just stresses me out. Sad I know. I do love their meatballs though! Hah!

Southern Gal - Our closest Ikea is over 100 miles away, so I’ve never made the trip. My daughter and I are going together within the month!! Happy birthday to your Annie!

Angela - Jealous of your Ikea trip and girls weekend! Happy Birthday to Annie!!

Tessa - I agree – when you are not near an IKEA, it is a big deal to go. It is like a day trip for us! I haven’t been there in awhile, and I ready to go! 🙂

heather m. - I am all about some randomness! Love Ikea but it’s been a while- I don’t think I could make quick pass though- you go girl! I dig the chandelier and black and white! You’re too cute 🙂

Tracy - Happy Birthday Miss Annie! I’m sure Mom will pull out a great day for you 😉

Yes, Jimmy Fallon always seems so happy! He makes me so happy 🙂 I think he would be such a hoot to live with…I bet he’s a great dad!

Brady Wilhelm - Hey Meg! I just wanted to make sure you knew they had an Ikea in Kansas City!! I think it’s fairly new and I had no idea it existed until I went to KC a few weeks ago! Just a heads up since it’s a little closer than Chicago 😉
