Living Room Upgrade

We seem to do big things in quick bursts all at the same time.  So along with fostering at the moment, we somehow managed to also completely redo the living room.  We moved out our big brown couch of 6 years and of numerous configurations along the way...


and moved in this new (well, new-to-us at least) sectional that I scored for a waaaaaaay better price than anything we saw (and still didn't like) at the furniture stores last month.  


And the loveseat that used to fit in the classroom was brought back down in the bedroom switchup just before the boys got here, so along with that extra seating, I would say our living room is the most hospitable its ever been.  Josh only whimpers a little because his recliner was booted for the update.


I can't wait for Community Group on Wednesday to see it full ... and full without people squatting on the fireplace or kitchen chairs moved into the doorway.  Ha!

I LOVE that you got a light color sectional....the dark color couches always seem to make the room smaller...so GOOD CHOICE! Lightens up the room too. What fun!

I was worried the light color would be too much with the light floor, but it's not bad. Also, the lower height and lowers arms help to lower the profile of it in the room, so to the eye, the room looks bigger. Not bad! But I already miss my big squishy couch that I could collapse into. This one is a little firmer. Not bad. Just different a smidge. Can't wait til Y'ALL come up here and fill up its seats next!!!

Thanks!! There's room for Browns, too, on their next road trip north. :)
