Couches...

Here's our old couch....

This was a used couch my grandma had before she passed away and that was over 10 years ago. Then we inherited it as we were newly married and in need of a couch. You can't see all of the stains and rips because Al, Carter and Emily are strategically placed for the picture....


Here is Carter, my child who really doesn't like change, so sad because we are getting rid of the old couch and getting a NEW one!! Not excited for a NEW one, but sad for the old one because I made the mistake of saying we were probably throwing it away....

The NEW couch, all leather and I opted for the $25 extra so we could have two more recliners. And look! 4 people can sit across it! But, do you think I ever get to sit in one recliner still, even though we now have 3???

Update: Carter was so sad we got rid of the old couch, we told him he could keep the cushions if they stayed in his bedroom upstairs!!!!

We took the rest of the old couch out to Al's parents burn pile, but at the time there was so much snow we couldn't make it all the way out there and Al dumped it off of the truck just behind their garage and a bin. I have to admit it does look kind of sad especially since it was my grandma's. But, we have a NEW wonderfully nice all leather couch to come home to and pictures, not to mention cushions of the old favorite. Not a bad trade off. Even for Carter, who takes his turn to sleep on it now and then!
