Yesterday the hardwood guy installed our wood floors {see the picture on instagram} today he’s installing the tile in the laundry room and The Girl’s bathroom. Wahooo! Friday the counter tops are suppose to be installed so that means I should be able to unpack and get moved into the kitchen this Sunday. Yee- Ha!

But now that the floors are getting installed, that means we are going to need a couch to sit on. I sold all our couches from the last house because the family room was much larger and the couches were HUGE and would not have fit in the new house. Well, I stopped by Dania furniture the other day and found one I really liked. It’s exactly like the one above except the left side will also have a chaise added to it.

The cushions are super cozy and the fabric is crazy soft. {I’m totally not getting those pillows though}. The picture I took is a little bright, but I think the color will go well with the flooring as well as the slate around the fireplace and white kitchen. What do you think? I may snag one of those shaggy rugs from Costco to go with it to brighten up the space between the floor and the couch. Only problem is, it takes 6-8 weeks to get the couch. What do you think? Too bulky, or just right?

Happy Thursday everyone, now get out there and be AWESOME.
