New Rug

With Evan *on the move* now discussions popped up about the possibility of the need/want for a softer place for him to *land*. Those conversations brought about the purchase of a new rug. Actually it's just a really large piece of carpet, but we're just using it as an area rug. Don't you just love to feel used? Well maybe not, but we sure do enjoy the feel of our new rug...carpet...whatever you choose to call it.

Here is the before...
...oh wait! A lump, you say? Or is it a strange photographic phenomenon?

Nope...
...It's a lump. A lump of kid.

And the afters...
Okay so you can't really see what it looks like in this picture, but you do get to see my 2 cute little boys. We got the rug/carpet today and spent the afternoon working on the living room. Both of the boys seem to LOVE it! Ryan bounced and rolled and crawled and snuggled in a blankie on the rug. Evan rolled and played and tried to crawl on the new rug. Of all fairly big purchases we've made recently I have to say this one might just be the best. My boys and I spent a good deal of time this evening rolling and tumbling and climbing all over each other on our new found plush oasis.

So this is more of an *after* picture...

The color is "Cowboy Beige" I think. It comes about 10-12 inches shy of the entertainment center, about 3 inches from the fireplace, up to the legs of the piano which is about 18-24 inches from the wall, and about 3 feet from the patio doors.

And finally...for your viewing pleasure...some pictures taken this past week.
