New Furniture and Some Picnic Pals

My new furniture is here. WOOHOO! I even shampooed the area rug. Can't have brand spanking new furniture with a stained carpet! Looks all nice and fresh now. Except for the constant clutter. You don't realize how cluttered your house is until you take a picture of it. Art supplies tucked under the end table, basket FULL of books, coffee table littered with Amelia drawings and little trinkets, bookcase full of Daddy's collectibles AND more of Amelia's trinkets and toys. I need to do some serious DE-cluttering. Notice I didn't mention any of my stuff. LOL. I have plenty in there too. You just don't see it. ;)

Here is Chris's favorite new spot, the club chair recliner...

We had a big purple chair and a half in this spot which I loved but it was just too big. It is now in Amelia's new bedroom (our old Master bedroom) and she will be able to curl up in it and read or do whatever.

New couch...

Not really the color I was going for. Our old couch, which will be going to New Hampshire next week if it doesn't rain, was green. I was hoping for something else but there really isn't anything out there. I really liked this one. The back cushions are a bit too poofy yet. Couple months of Amelia hanging out on it and it will be nicely broken in.

And some picnic pals. Amelia and I went to a family picnic on Sunday and her pals Jake and Lucas were there. They had a great time together and Amelia requested that they get invited to her birthday party next month.

Jake just turned 4 so he and Amelia are the same age. Lucas is now 2. Lucas and Jake are brothers and they are the sons of my cousin's cousin... other side of family. When Jake and Amelia get together, they are just so cute! They give hugs and kisses to each other and hold hands. ♥

Enjoy your day!
