New TV, Bloggers. Bloggers, New TV.


Now that you've met, I can tell you the incredible story of how he came into our lives. It all started when I was making dinner. We were having steaks, garlic potatoes, and cheesy bread. That really has nothing to do with the story, but I feel like it adds to the effect. So Mark comes home from work, and he's practically skipping. If you know Mark, you know that he doesn't skip very often. And when he does, you know it's gonna be good. So he comes in with this flamboyant grin on his handsome face, which you also don't see everyday. This was the kind that went from ear to ear. And I ask how his day was. And he says it was the best day of his life.... And then I really know something's up, because usually his answer to this question is "Okay" or "Fine" or if you're really lucky, you'll get a "good". He informs me that his boss had a brand new extra 42 inch FLAT SCREEN TV lying around that he won in a contest ... and he wanted to give it to US!!! Yes, that is right ....... US!!!! So basically after you add up everything it cost us, it comes up to be about..... FREE!!!!! And you can't get a better deal than that!

I can not believe this! Dusty and I are both very jealous. I told Dust about it and the first thing he said was, "football is going to be so cool on that" I am sure Mark was thinking the same thing:) I would love to see him skip into the house!

That TV's kinda nice, I guess. I can relate to the excitement, though. I've had these really small scriptures that are hard to read and I CAN'T WAIT to get them in a jumbo version.

Oh my goodness Annika! That is the coolest! I thought it was cool that you guys got a big screen in the first place, but to find out it was free?!! That is amazing! I can't wait to see it in person! Heaven must have been smiling down on you.;)
