Bed in a Box

Its just what it sounds like ... an entire bed ... tightly rolled, with every ounce of air sucked out of it ... and stuffed into a box.
     Sounds super fancy & classy am I right? haha

Justin's so funny. He's makes me laugh a lot.

You forget how small a twin bed looks.

It takes a little while for these beds to totally inflate and air out. Jib has minimal patience sometimes. :)

He was so sick of our bed of 8 years, I was so sick of both him and Jocelyn keeping me up at night {he literally flops around ALL NIGHT LONG!}, so back in April, he decided he was going to buy a Temper-pedic twin-sized bed.

I know, a twin-sized bed? Guess his solution was to sleep by himself?

Off and on throughout the months, he did sleep by himself haha
When he was actually home.
On the floor.
Next to me ... who was in the queen bed.
By myself.
Heaven?
     On occasion haha -- If Jocie doesn't let me sleep, what little sleep I DO GET, I can't have robbed by a floppin', kickin', wild husband. As much as I love him, that had to stop!

Justin's thinking was if he liked the bed after trying it out, he would get another one for me, we'd make it into a king-sized bed and with it being two separate beds, there would be the least amount of movement ever.

The hard part? Me liking the same bed.

When he was gone for two months, I tested his out here and there. The verdict?
     I ACTUALLY DO LIKE IT!!

Fast forward to the month of August -- Yea, FOUR WHOLE MONTHS!!
     But he was gone for quite a bit of that.

We now have another bed.

Neither of us have ever had a king-sized bed. This thing is ridiculously HUGE, but I love that we are both getting some good quality sleep. You can not put a price tag on that! Even if you only get 4-5 hours of sleep, when those hours are good quality, it makes a world of difference.

Now the fun part.
     Shopping for king-sized bedding!! woohoo!! :)
          Let the fun begin!! {I've started dropping hints to my mother-in-law for a king-sized quilt. Those are tedious and time-consuming to make, but having a beautiful quilt for our bed would be perfect, so I'm hoping she caves haha}
