So in the last few weeks, we have managed to get a new 42" TV for a steal of a price from a friend, we also found a really nice desk (for free!) by our friends apartment dumpster, we got a puppy from a friend (puppy was free, we're just paying for his new stuff, finishing his shots, etc.), and yesterday we got a new sectional couch from a friend for a steal of a price as well. We also spent some time yesterday with a friend of our from Pine Lake Middle School/Issaquah High school. She lived in New Orleans a few years ago, and comes back to visit often, so she made the drive out to Lafayette yesterday to hang out with us for lunch, and she brought us a quilt for the baby that she made- it is beautiful. Life is good! I hardly recognize our living room anymore with new furniture, couch, 2 dogs playing constantly, etc. So I figured in my excitement I would post some pictures of the goodies that we have gained.....
The sectional couch... it's a bit worn, but it has a recliner on each end, and a hide-a-bed on the longer side. Pardon my messy house....

And the TV we got last week.... a much welcomed improvement to our lovely 20". Our friend wasn't using it, so he sold it to us at a great price.



Beautiful isn't it? It makes me want to pick up quilting. I tried a while back, and I didn't have the patience for any finished projects.
Meet Jax! He is about 10 weeks and currently 7 lbs, a miniature pinscher/toy rat terrier mix. He is sweet as candy, and loves Mike and I as much as he loves Buddy. He's also very bright, just as most terriers are. He is still a puppy, so he is a bit of a handful, but he is already learning to sit, stay, etc with a lot of Buddy's help : )
Here are Buddy and Jax together in our kitchen.
Here is my sweet boy Buddy, looking all grown up and noble now that he has a puppy to teach.
Jax, being cute. He has something stuck on his nose it looks like....
Me and Jax.... ignore my pregnancy-induced breakout all over my face LOL



Here is the quilt that Stephanie made for Baby.....



Here are some pics of our doggies...







And my all time favorite.....

Jax looks like such a sweetie, not to mention a cutie! Congrats on the new addition to your family! =) And I love the quilt--your friend did a great job! What was her last name? I'm trying to remember which Stephanie you would be talking about. ?? Congrats on the great finds with your furniture and TV too! I love sectionals (because everyone can sit on them together), and the reclining and fold out features are super nice! I LOVE finding free furniture, and am jealous of your new TV, but am happy for you and glad that you guys got it for such a good deal! =) I'm so happy that you guys are doing well!!! Love, Jenny
P.S. we've got to Skype each other one of these days!
