Have you seen my couch?

Did I ever tell you the story about our

Family Room Couch???

***

We ordered one back in August

but it was going to take until the

end of September to get in.

I have to say it was the most beautiful

couch I have ever seen and the most comfortable

couch I have ever sat on.

FINALLY...

The RC Willey guys came and I

was singing them praises as they were

unwrapping it and getting it ready to bring in.

I mean, I've been waiting over a month for this couch.

Then they got to the bottom of the stairs

and couldn't get it around the turn.

It was only 9 ft long, I thought these

guys were professionals!!!

So after a few tears

I waved goodbye to my blessed couch.

We went back to RC Willey to try again.

We found another sectional that comes

in more pieces, so it should fit.
After our friend Vern switches

all of the paperwork, he tells me

it won't be in until the end of October.

I was so bummed, I had a movie date all planned

and was so looking forward to it.

So Jason, being the problem solver that he is,

set this bad boy up.

And its been set up all month long.

I was told the new couch will be in

on October 25th.

I won't hold my breath,

but it will be a very exciting day.

On a different note...

This guy had his first class field trip.

Lyla and I got to go along

and had a lovely time.

First was the crazy hay maze...

I made the mistake of saying,

"Lets see whats around the corner."
Yeah, not a good idea because he had to

slowly peak around each corner thinking

I was implying there was something

ready to jump out at him at any moment.

Which could be why his

smile looks a little forced

and also why he was so willing

to let his little sister go first.

Then off to the pumpkin patch


This is his cute little class


Yesterday we ran down to
Gardener Village to meet up with
some very good friends.
We saw all of the
HILARIOUS Witches.
I had to keep saying how
HILARIOUS
they were so that Dallin wouldn't be afraid.
He's my skittish little guy.

Then after Gardener Village we picked
up the Scouts (because that is my new calling)
and headed to Tracy Aviary.
They wouldn't hold still long enough
to be in a picture.
But I was so excited to go
because everyone knows I just
LOVE
birds.
Can you even see the bald eagle?


The other Scout leader told me how
she sometimes picks her husband up for
lunch and they have a picnic at the Aviary.
Yeah, good for her because I really
had a hard time choking down dinner
at home after thinking about the
beautiful vulture I saw there.
