New Furniture!

This is our 13 year old couch that has been well loved. It has been tromped on, slept on, puked on, jumped on, spilled on, flipped over, you name it. If kids can do it to a couch, mine have done it to this one!! The problem - I've LOVED this couch! It's all of my favorite colors. It doesn't show spots. Believe me, there are plenty! I did not want to get rid of it, but it's time had come :o( We're fairly cheap frugal here so I wasn't willing to shell out the money for a brand new jumping bag couch. We've been looking on craigslist for quite some time. We finally found one that we thought would be adequate in replacing our well loved one.

Here it is! What do you think? Don't you LOVE it??? I was so pleased at how well it blended in with the colors and decor I already have. I think, with time, I could grow to love this one almost as much as the other one :o)

For the rest of the story: When we bought the first couch 13 years ago, we were still in college and poor. The second couch was the one I REALLY wanted, but the smaller one was a bit cheaper. If we bought the smaller one, we could also afford to get a new recliner. So we bought the smaller one. Now here it is 13 years later and I finally get the one I really wanted! Isn't God good?! The cherry on top is the fact that it was actually being sold by someone we knew (we didn't know this at the time.) So we got a wonderful new couch AND we got to help some friends out!!

COOL!

Do YOU get enough veggies?

Aaron takes getting his daily recommended servings of veggies VERY seriously! Um...Mom...time for my veggies.



Oh, that's VEGGIE TALES! Let me tell ya, that boy is a veggie-a-holic!

I think he could watch them every waking moment and possibly every sleeping moment if he got comfortable enough!

Mom...this is the next serving I want.....thanks!
