Married Life can Officially begin

Officially tomorrow at around 3pm, our married lives will begin! I know we have been married since May 9th, however we haven't been living so to speak as a married couple with our own house. I have been living in a house that isn't mine nor Phil's and to me it was very stressful. Only for the fact that I couldn't decorate, i couldn't change anything since we weren't living in our own place. So look out!! Tomorrow a whole new part of our lives begins! To start our day we are going to St Jacobs to talk to the mennonite people about our furniture. Picture this, we go to the furniture store (not the Mennonites place, but a box store) and dad brings his trusty tape measure and Phil takes control of the camera. Dad sits down on the ottoman for sale and starts making diagrams and drafts a duplicate of our bedroom set full with measurements of every nook and cranny! Mom and I took off and looked around the store, we were scared of getting caught. So about after an hour, we took our scetch book and headed off to Kim's (Tom's gf) birthday party. Needless to say no one in the store said anything to them, or so those two claim. At one point mom and I say a salesperson walk away with their papers. Phil said he was going to check the price of the wardrobe ha ha ha. I was, "ya right you got it confinscated" But he brought it back.
A little word of advice, if you are looking for any furniture and want it quality made for a very low price, I really recommend going to St Jacobs and having the real professionals (Mennonites) do it! They actually take pride over what they produce. And turns out, at the big box store we were at, the furniture wasn't even made of real wood, it was made from cherry veneres. So fake wood. And yet they charged 6500 plus tax for three pieces of furniture. Our furniture is real Oak and half the price for three pieces!
