"And now all my wildest dreams have come true!"

Or so Travis exclaimed to me last night.
I responded with:
"Yeah, and those are: you married a hot chick; produced more than one heir; and now you've finally gotten rid of the ugly couch you inherited with your hot chick, right?"

That's right folks, it was all about the couch I brought along from my parents house when we were first married and didn't have anything...

When we first moved to Milwaukee and had an 8 month old, this is what this corner of our living room looked like:
After not too long, the ugly papasan and pillows were moved to the basement to make room for a shelf system of buckets for toys. Probably after only one Christmas and/or birthday or other packages sent to the boys, the buckets were clearly not enough. We were completely overflowing and it's gotten much worse since the picture below. Since the brown couch rarely got used as anything but a catch all, we finally decided to get rid of it.
After selling it to a newly moved to Milwaukee couple last night, this is what the corner of our living room looks like now:
Yes, I think it's absolutely ridiculous. :) But the boys owe many thanks to generous grandparents because otherwise our boys' toy corner would probably make them look neglected...
