Old Couch

This is the couch we replaced!

We bought this couch almost 12 years ago when we moved to St. George. We bought it used. It was just what we needed. It has a hide a bed, and we needed an extra bed for company to sleep on, so it was great. When we moved to Layton 9 years ago, I had to buy a couch cover for it. The cushions were starting to get a little warn. It was a great couch and it definitely served its purpose in our family. We no longer have the need for a hide a bed. As you can see it was time for a new couch.

I pulled out the bed to remove the cover and the egg shell and the kids wanted to play on the bed.

Boy did they have fun. I let them jump on it, what a treat for them. Sarah went to bed singing the "blues" about the couch. She was so sad that it was going to the dump the next day. She was laying in her bed singing and crying about how she was going to miss the couch. She told me it was the only thing we had fun in the whole house. I told her we could get rid of all her toys, and she agreed. Then she said she might change her mind in the morning and she did. She decided to keep her toys. Tyler was also sad about the couch leaving. He was almost in tears when he went to bed.
