[Previous home improvement projects: fixed fence and minisplits, reupholstered chairs and solar panels]
This year, our big home improvement project was repainting the outside of the house. We hired a local company and deliberated the color choice. We wanted a similar gray but also wanted to switch to a fun new door color. Thankfully, we managed to do both and we love how it looks now. The previous paint job didn't sand off the previous coat so the paint had started bubbling and cracking off the cedar siding. They sanded off all previous paint layers and also fixed a lot of rotten wood and other issues. It's so nice to have this done nicely and correctly for many years to come.
Edit: Another home improvement that we did this year is we did indeed get a new couch for our TV room that comfortably fits all 3 of us. It's from La-Z-boy and has a mechanical side and a manual side along with a console and chaise. It is exactly what we were looking for and has been so comfy!
