we bought furniture…we’readults.

We bought a new couch!  I’ve been stalking grey couches at ikea for about a year now and FINALLY we got one.  Our living room is not the biggest and we had this GIANT sectional.  Although it was comfy and could seat an entire army comfortably it really limited what we could do with our space. I’m one of those people that likes to move furniture around to change things up and with that giant couch we had only one option.  it drove me CRAZY.  Our little yellow chair was actually free.  I found it on the side of the road like 4 years ago and it will probably remain in our home in some way for the years to come.  its one of those rare freebies that you actually want to keep around.

Brett and I have had some really awesome things given to us during our first couple years of marriage, but its so nice to actually go to a store and pick something out that you both want.  Its just a couch, but it has made our home feel SO much more like us.  There is a TON of other stuff I would like to buy, but we don’t have an extra 10,000 laying around (cuz seriously that’s how much id spend if I could), but we’re thinking of every few months investing in a piece of furniture or home item that we love and would like to have in our future house.  Ive got my eye on our couches matching ottoman.  : )
