The Couch that Could Not Fit!

So, we have this lovely, yet giant, red leather couch that we love, but it was too big to get down into our family room, so we left it upstairs to go in our living room. But, what do you do in a TV room with no where to sit? So we set out on a journey to find the perfect couch. It didn't take long at all before we found a comfy, affordable, durable couch to go in our family room. We were so excited. It was delivered a few days later and after 2 hours of trying, they just couldn't get it downstairs. When we looked at the couch we had assumed it was a 3 cushion x 3 cushion sectional, but it turned out to be a 4x2. We were left with a mini couch in our basement a the giant piece lived in our garage until Joe finished the bar so he could help me get it inside...some hoe!
After many attempt to take the window panes out we resorted to complete demolition. Our only problem is we haven't really acquired very many tools in our marriage thus far. So I ran upstairs and pulled out the bread knife. We sliced the entire window piece out so we could get our couch in. It was disturbingly easier than I expected.
After that it was a sinch! We pushed the window straight in and placed it in the living room.
Joe then helped me reseal the window with some outdoor caulking. It was then that I realized we would have to do this all over again when we moved out... good thing that isn't anywhere in the distant future. 
So here it is! isn't it pretty and comfy, and everything a couch ought to be?! Now we will spend many lovely cuddly nights on this couch. (not to mention we can sleep two small guests on it, so come on up!)
