Today was our last chance to take Aaron to Minnieland for a “school day” before we go on our vacation next week, so here he is ready to go. 
We took the opportunity to work on a project we have been wanting to tackle for a year now, a remake of our family room. We have been really frustrated with the lack of seating in the room considering how big it is, and ever since my parents got a giant sectional that seats like a million people, we have been wanting to make a change. However, we have a perfectly serviceable set of furniture in the room and the new update would require us to get rid of it. Until this week, we really had no hope of doing that because we have no place to store it. However, Sarah and Zack are moving into a big new place and we tried offering all the furniture we could and they wanted every bit of it! Win-win!
So began phase 1 of 4 to make this room the way we want it. Here’s the room in the morning after I emptied out our giant entertainment unit…
Here’s the room after we broke down the pieces as much as we could without additional helping hands…
And here’s the new tv in it’s temporary home (phase 2 is mounting it on the wall over the fireplace)
Okay, okay, here’s the Beyonce picture on the tv box.
And here’s our new sectional! Couch and tv are both screamin’ deals from Costco.
This couch is really amazing. It is seven pieces, each one separate, so they can be arranged in endless configurations around the room. This is the way we would keep it for family time, but if we had a large party we could adjust it for more seating/less footrests, and we can also adjust for when it’s time to add a Christmas tree or pack and play.
He looks pretty tiny on the couch, right??
MAN we are excited!
