New Furniture!





So, as much as we truly loved our first sofa and chair (courtesy of Josh's parents~Thank You Thank You Thank You!!), and as much as we will miss them...(I can't count how many naps I've taken on it~super comfy)...it was time to say goodbye. And today was the day! We ordered/bought the stuff at the FURNITURE MARKET (in all caps to signify to non-triad readers the hugeness of said market...which is a big sale/furniture show/buying/selling ~industry staple in the furniture biz that basically takes over High Point twice a year) this past spring and it finally got here. We custom-ordered a sofa, chair, and upholstered storage ottoman...it was a little scary ordering this furniture and I'll tell you why: the day we picked it out and ordered it was my first day back at work after maternity leave and I was exhausted, to say the least. I was carrying Charlotte around the furniture store, a little delirious, and pretty much any sofa was comfortable..so that was scary point #1: was it actually comfortable? Scary point #2 was not being able to "mull over" how it would look with our existing furniture/colors/room...but we had to decide right then, so we went for it!! Well, both points ended in happiness: it is very comfy and looks good~we think! Any and all blog readers are more than welcome to come low-test our new seats!!
