Adult Field Trip!

A few weeks back, we had family in town for a visit!
Uncle Michael and Aunt Karen came to stay the weekend! The best part was that they came in town on Thursday!
Friday...the kids were in school, so we took a little field trip to IKEA!
We had breakfast..yummy and cheap. It was buy one for $1.99 and get one free!
Coffee is always free. A full fledge breakfast with all the fixins and coffee
was $2.14 (total) for David and me! What? 

Then we shopped around. Got lots of great ideas. Bought a few trinkets....and got finished in time to stop by the grocery store before meeting the kiddos back  home!
Adult field trips are so much fun....maybe next time we'll pack a lunch and head to the Zoo or the Water Park....well, maybe a museum, how's that?

Where would you like to go for an adult field trip?

  7. I was very envious of this post. I couldn't think of a better adult field trip destination. I'm hoping yours wasn't a five hour drive like ours is. Makes for a very long drive. But we manage one at least a couple of times a year.

  9. Oh, that sounds like a fun little outing! I miss IKEA. :( We don't have one out here and the last time I checked, they don't ship to Hawaii, either. Booooooooo! They have such cool items at fantastic prices (and you scored on the super affordable breakfasts, too)!

  10. Oh man. A field trip with adults. It would have to include somewhere we could talk...and not be too fancy....and not cost a lot of money. Okay, so I think Ikea would be it.

  11. It looks like you had a great day @ IKEA Jen! How nice that you were able to take an adult field trip. I agree - their breakfasts are great and a must for any IKEA trip. I guess I haven't been paying attention though, because I had no idea that the coffee was free!
