New Furniture

When we got home from the Ozarks Travis had a seat in his favorite chair. It's a green rocker recliner. That is his spot in the living room. Buddy has a matching chair on their other side of the living room. I get the couch in between the two guys! :)

When Travis sat down and started to rock we heard this big Crunch, thump, Boom! His beloved chair broke! It was a sad, sad, night. The chair is tilted to the left now and no longer rocks. :(

But there is good news amongst this sadness! We went yesterday afternoon to Galesburg and the Quad Cities in order to shop for new chairs! After going to 6 different stores, price comparing, comfort comparing, and deciding what we wanted we are now the proud owners of 2 new identical leather rocker recliners! Oh la la!

One snag....the recliners we purchased are not in stock! They were supposed to get a new shipment on July 3rd but they haven't arrived yet! I am going to call every day until they come in! We are very excited and are now talking about a new couch too! YEAH! I love new furniture!

The old furniture will not be just thrown to the curb....we are going to move it to the basement in the hopes of one day being able to somehow finish the basement off and have a 2nd living room down there.

Travis plans to try to fix the chair that broke on a cold, windy snow day this winter! :)

Here's our new chair!
