Sectional and Scrumptiousness!!

As always, the weekend was packed and flew by too quickly.  Saturday was senior pictures for Jordan, picking up a new lawnmower at Lowe's, getting my nails filled while Michael took ten minutes to walk around the mall, then he made his scrumptious lemon chicken for dinner. 

This morning found us putting together the new mower, filling it with oil and gas, grabbing the cord to start and....nothing.  Arrrggg!!  After feeling around the mower, it became apparent there was a gas leak in my sturdy new Troybilt.  We called Lowe's and they told us to bring it back and trade it in.  Yesterday there were about a dozen of the same mowers on the shelf and today there were only two.  Wow!!  Thankfully they put one aside for me.  Michael and the boys then loaded up the mower (full of gas!) and we returned it to Lowe's.  When we returned home, Michael and Sam put it together and voila!!  The sound of the purring motor was music to my ears. 

Sam then mowed the front and back yard while Jordan, Michael and I worked on cleaning the back porch.  We then moved furniture from the living room to the family room, transporting the ugly recliner to the garage and moving the brick leather couch to the back porch.  It actually looks darn good there and will be much better after we get shades to protect it from the rain.

We were ready and set for the new sectional to be delivered today...between 3pm and 7pm.  We hung out and waited, and waited, and waited some more before it was finally delivered about 6pm.  We are all in agreement that it looks wonderful!!  We then moved some of the furniture around to mesh better with the sectional; I'm very happy with the new look!!
