Group Effort

This little chair belonged to Todd's Papa Brutus. It's quite cute in it's almost original state. However, I felt the need to update it for Afton's full benefit.

 

I can not take full credit for the cuteness of this.
Liz did the hard part of sewing the adorable cushions. Even though I picked out the material. :-)
I did do the painting though, and that was not exactly easy.


I think I will avoid painting rocking chairs as much as possible in the future.

I am pretty excited about a purchase that we made tonight.
I was ever so casually browsing craigslist on our tiny loveseat in the den when I came across a bargain.
Leather sectional for $250.
Say what?!
That's right. It was a bargain.
Finally, two months after moving in we have furniture in every room. :-)
My dear Todd is quite excellent. He is so strong and moved furniture back and forth all through our house tonight until I was satisfied. I guess I probably owe him a back rub.

It has been a long day. Todd was home from work and we definitely seized the day.
Tackling all kinds of projects and such.
He will be home again tomorrow and I think we will seize the day by actually relaxing and lazing around the house.
Oh wait, I already invited my dad over for dinner.
Brisket and baked potatoes.
YUM!

I guess I will have to seize another day...
