A Place To Sit

While Blake and I were on our anniversary trip we shopped for furniture for our living room.

We made sure that the stores we visited while in the Twin Cities were stores that we had locally too.

I already had in my mind exactly what I wanted, and Blake agreed with what I was describing to him.

It was important to me that the back of the couch was not too high, that it was firm, and that the cushions that are behind your back when sitting down were attached.

I also was hoping for a nice light shade of grey – and all of that within our budget!!

The second store we visited had just what we were looking for!

We called the local store, ordered and paid for the furniture over the phone, and set up the plan to pick it all up on Monday night.

Perfect!!

The decorative pillows that came with the couch were not our taste.

Thankfully I had a friend who told me to bring them home anyway and recover them.

That is exactly what I did!

I ordered new pillow covers from Amazon for under $6 a piece.

We are enjoying this new furniture very, very much – as you can imagine!

I hear the kiddos say over and over how thankful they are to have a place to sit.

ME too!!!

This was just the start of finishing up things here at Twin Oaks.

Next up – ceiling fans and a YARD!!!
