A new TV... finally!

Ok I know I'm horrible for not keeping this up to date, but seriously I have been busy.
Since we got our laptops I have been trying to figure out all of the cool new features, figure out how to manage my music for my MP3 player, and make as many back ups of my contacts as I possibly can. For those of you that don't know my cell phone broke about the time we ordered the laptops luckily we had bought the insurance through Best Buy and were able to get a replacement phone, but unfortunately I lost all of my Contacts that I had stored on my phone and for some of them that was the only place I had their number, hence the backing up of all of my current contacts. Also if you don't know if I have your number (or current contact info), email it to me at paaschfamily@gmail.com
Also since we got the laptops Matt decided to do a "little" rearranging of our house. It looks much nicer and give us much more room to live in now. We got rid of our big entertainment center and replaced it with a small(er) corner fireplace on top of which we will place our new 32" flat screen TV, which we will finally get to pick up tonight (more on that in a minute). Doing that allowed us to move some other pieces of furniture and make our living room alot less crowded.
Matt also figured since our laptops give us access to our computers from any where in the house it would be a good idea to move the big desk and the "main" computer to our bedroom where it would be out of the way (it was in the kitchen before) and I whole heartedly agreed. So now my Kitchen and living room are much roomier and homey, but my bedroom..., well the less said on that subject the better. But that's ok, since most people don't go back to my bedroom anyway.
Now to the subject of the TV, two weeks ago Thursday when we got our tax refund (not to be confused with the tax rebate , yet to be received) we headed off to Wal-Mart to spend said money. We had done our research online and knew exactly what we wanted and how much it would cost well, when we got to the store we discovered that it costs more to buy things in store, a lot more, the TV was almost $200 more and the sound system we wanted was $20 more so we said no thanks we'd buy it online (at Wal-mart.com), the funny thing is that we got FREE site-to-store shipping, the only thing was we'd have to wait 7-10 days. Anyway to make a long story short we got an email today from Wal-Mart and it's in so we will be going to pick that up later this evening. I'll close for now.
