my blue couches

Franca and I bought big blue comfy couches when we got married. We bought them at Cameo Sleep Sofas on HWY 40 (St. Laurant).

These couches have been used in 3 livings rooms: our apartment in Lasalle, and 2 homes - Laval and the West Island.



These couches have been lots of things over the last 10 years:

We've counseled friends... laughed with them... hung out with family... had people sleep over... watched TV and read on them... had family meetings and discussions... walked through ups and downs in our marriage on them.

pretty interesting...

These couches we're the seats at the beginning of Westside's journey... we've prayed on these couches... cried... worshiped... studied scripture... heard stories... shared dreams... cast vision...
We've said good-bye to people... welcomed new friends...

We've heard people confess and share deep hurts on them... and have had others come around them with love and grace.

There's so much more,...

My blue couches.

Family. Friends. Church Community. Life.

What a great investment! A purchase I have not regretted once.

What do your couches mean to you?
