Sleepin around.





PS - Don't you love the pillows?!?! I'm in love with the yellow and grey combo if I do say so myself...

We have made our biggest purchase as a married couple TO DATE! Cleo was a big purchase for us, but I'm not sure if that counts because what we bought her for we got back when we sold it... plus, it was in NZ dollars which is basically like paying in possum fur...

But we are now the proud owners of a sleeper sofa! We have a second bedroom that we're using as an office (which is currently only used for Josh's XBox addiction) and wasn't big enough for a full-time bed, but is big enough for a couch that can turn into a bed. After staying at Shane and Anna's in Santa Barbara, we knew we had to get whatever they had - it was so comfortable! No bars poking through, no springs out of place. It was fabulous. They warned us that they definitely paid for that little piece of heaven and after doing our research, yes they did! BUT, we're looking at it as an investment -- plus, every part of it is under warranty so if something does go wrong we're told they'll fix it - whenever, whatever, for the life of the couch. So that's nice.

Anyway - we shopped around and ended up getting it at a little local store. The man was a typical salesman and Josh totally ate it up. He's Canadian. He hasn't been tainted with the American "everyone's out to get you" mentality yet. We got him down to nearly 1/2 the retail price (which is SO over inflated, but whatever) and had it delivered Monday!
