Last Friday was f-u-n, fun.
We rode up and down escalators…
…and ate Swedish meatballs and mashed pa-taters…
We tripped out on trays…
…and smiled at striped duvets…
We sipped tea on aisle four…
…and found lots of little goodies, all over the store…
We got hid our hands in our bags, and sang with invisible mics…
We ran into unbelievable prices that made me say “yikes!”
When we were done at Ikea, we headed over to Borders. We sat on the floor, and counted our quarters. (Not really….it just rhymed.)
We met lots of cool folks hanging out in the store…
…and I’ll never forget seeing this guy and his family stroll in through the door…
We had a blast chatting it up with the incomparable Miss Ree…
…and I had her sign an extra copy of her book, with love from TLC…
Want a chance to win it? Just leave a comment on this post and we’ll pick a winner on Friday!

Hey Layla!
Sounds like y’all had a blast! I met Ree on Valentine’s Day in Dallas and she was so adorable! I ended up in the 5th wave of 100 people waiting to meet her, so it was about 11:45 p.m. by the time I got up there. She was so gracious and sweet – she had to be exhausted, but you sure couldn’t tell. It was worth the wait for sure! Whoever wins the book is in for a treat! 🙂

Ooohh–I love Ree and am a faithful follower of her blog. I would be ecstatic to win this autographed book! Thanks for the giveaway.

I am kinda jealous that you got to meet her.

WOW what a blast. All my favorite blogs in one room! Would love to have an autograph copy or the book. May the luck of the Irish be with me.

This makes me SO SAD!!! I live in Buckhead and when I saw SouthernRhoda and PIShaunna’s text I wanted to CRY!!! I live less than a mile from that Ikea and was thinking what I’d do if I ran into y’all!! I had to go to a wedding last Friday and wasn’t able to go to the Border’s PW (and all you fine ladies!) were at! I am SO sad! I’d love to win this book to make me feel better about missing out on this!
