Seven Red Things

Shannan, my sister-in-law, tagged me to post 7 red things from my house. Red is not hard to find at my place. It’s my favorite color.

Our Christmas Poinsettia, still hanging on.

I don’t have 7 blog friends to tag, but I have enjoyed finding the red today.

Long-awaited Sofa

Well, we did it. After almost 15 years, we have finally purchased a sofa for our family room. It’s big and everyone will have a place to sit. It also comes with an ottoman so we can all put our feet up.  And no more fights over who gets to sit in the red chair. It’s a good move for peace.

Heaven on Earth

Tonight, as I made dinner, this is what our family room looked like:

Kid Heaven.

(Yes, Mark is taking a little pre-dinner snooze.) Thankfully, the living room still looked like this:

Mom Heaven.

I should have completed the series by taking a picture of Daniel and Richard in the garage replacing the car’s brake pads.

The title of that picture would have been,

Father-Son Heaven.
