Furniture Blessing!

Yesterday I dragged Matt down to Vacaville/Fairfield to look at all things baby, as we don't have as many options up here. We made a fun day of it (ok, well...fun in my opinion), hopped in the car early in the morning to make the trek down. It was so good to figure out what we would be needing and deciding on colors/patterns/etc for EVERYTHING. There are so many options it's overwhelming! Who knew there could be so much baby stuff?! Needless to say, he was pretty tired by the end of the afternoon but stuck it out with me. We were even able to come home with the dresser/changing table we had been eying-which was an amazing story. My mom actually saw it first and called me about it, but it was a little more than we were wanting to spend. But, when we got to the store in Vacaville I decided to just check it out in person. The tag on the dresser said it was significantly less than I originally thought. Come to find out, they had mismarked the piece, but told me that CA law states that they have to give it to us for that price! HOORAY! The manager went in the back and told me he only had the floor model (which had scratches) and one on layaway. I offered to pick it up in a different store if they could hold it. He then mentioned that he would be going to the Concord store the next day and if they had one in stock, he could sell me the layaway one and bring one back from Concord to replace the layaway. HOORAY AGAIN! Concord had one. They haul out the box and I'm eying it wondering how it's going to fit in the back of my car. Getting a little worried-since they've been so nice and accommodating, I didn't want them to have to haul it back in the stockroom after all that. We decided to measure the box and the back of my car. It was cutting it pretty close! We decided to give it a try. Matt and three other employees hoisted it up and shoved it in. SUCCESS! Had it been three inches longer, it wouldn't have fit! We are so happy we got such a great deal on furniture we LOVE! What a blessing-a great end to a long day! :) God truly provides!
