When you make a big purchase at Bill and Trac's house, there is always the obigatory going out and looking for it, find out how much it's gonna cost and then report back to Dad. Well, last Saturday me and Jayne and Mom went looking for new couches and a chair for her living room and a new couch for the den. We went to a place called Living Spaces and found some great deals. So, mom dared to call dad from the showroom and ask him to physically come down and look at them. She kept saying "the girls" think these are good and "the girls" would like you to come down here...and on and on. So he came and as he drove into the parking lot, Ma said, Lauri, do your thing. So I proceeded to tell Dad what a good idea they were and that they really needed something new...and he really needed something nice to sit on while he does Word Search etc. He hemmed and hawed about it a bit and then said, ok, go ahead. We are still in shock over here...how on earth did that happen? But here's what she got. The couch up on top there, a matching love seat. This chair
and this couch for the den. It's like a whole new world at the folks place...and we still don't know how the hell we did it!
