new furniture!

Jake and I went furniture shopping yesterday...specifically for a couch and a loveseat. The couch that we had was given to us by my grandma, and it was already quite old. It lasted another 4 years with us! Gotta love that leather! We have always found it difficult to have friends over when we only have the 1 couch to sit on. Normally we bring in camping chairs and our kitchen chairs for people, but now we have a loveseat too! So this morning we got the delivery, but it didn't go as planned. The delivery guys brought the loveseat in first, and then said that the couch was quite damaged because the packaging was ripped on one side and the leather all cut up. So now we have a new couch coming tomorrow, and hopefully it will be in perfect condition! It's kindof bittersweet, because neither Jake or I have purchased a new couch while on our own. So this is our own stuff! I will get a picture of both the couch and loveseat once we figure out how we will fit them both in the living room! We can only have 100% leather with the dogs. Our dogs are always on the furniture. We have always allowed them on our furniture, so stopping it now would be weird. We don't mind it anyways. We got a soft leather and it doesn't show scratches or anything, which is great!

Tomorrow, one of Molly and Solo's puppies named Benji will be going to his new home. He is so adorable!

We were babysitting one of my mom's past labradoodle puppies for the last few days. Her name is Amber. She was picked up by her owners last night. Tomorrow, one of Jersey's puppies is coming back for the weekend - little Victoria!

Jake has really started construction on our front picket fence. He dug half of the fence posts, and tomorrow we will be picking up all of the material and setting the posts on one side. We have eaten outside on our patio almost every night this week.
