We rearranged our living room lately because we got a new sectional sofa. The television used to be on the right side of the fireplace and we had this old red sofa that was falling apart. Aaron saw a sectional that was on sale Black Friday and I went and got it. I absolutely hate Black Friday shopping, but this wasn't too bad. The store opened at 8:30 so I didn't have to get up too early and it's right across the parking lot from a Starbucks. So that's good.
Here is the new sofa.
As you can see, we have a huge naked spot to the right of the fireplace. That is what I was on the search for. I found something that I loved, but it might have been too tall and it surely was too expensive. $500. But beautiful!
So needless to say, I still have a naked spot. For now.
One thing that I was really excited to find was a sign for my stairwell. I have wanted to put something up there for a long time, but I couldn't find anything that I like. I thought I may want a saying. But everything that I saw was super kitchy. "Home is where the heart is", "Home Sweet Home", "Gag me with a spoon!" - sorry, flashback to my 80's self.
I kind of wanted something to do with reading, so I even looked online for something and just never really saw what I was looking for. Today we were in our last store before going home and I had to use the restroom. And as luck would have it, there was just exactly what I was looking for - in the bathroom. Go figure. So I guess I have Mother Nature to thank for this -
Just the simple alphabet. Perfect!
Sorry for the poor image quality. The light from the windows is more than my little iPhone can do. I also got a old stained glass window to hang from the upper window and I'm going to retrim these windows soon so the whole thing will look even better soon!
After I got home, Esme's friend Emily came over for a play date. They had a great time and dressed up as princesses for dinner.
After Emily left, Esme fell right asleep on the couch. Shortly, I plan on being asleep too!
What a great day!
