Out with the Old in with the New

We got our first piece of real furniture! It is a table that seats 6. It has a leaf that can come out and plenty of room. I am so excited to have people over for dinner. We invite people over about once a week and it was so awkward to put the food on the counter and then hardly be able to fit four plates on the table at the same time. I need to make a new table runner. I think mind might be a little to informal for my new table. To me the table looks fancy but to the people at the furniture store this table is considered informal. You should have seen all the ornate tables and chairs. I love my table. I can't wait to play dominoes and cards with my family when they come. We've loved our little kitchen table that Patty gave us and I will be keeping it and using as a craft table.

That's a beautiful new table! That is the style of table I'd be looking for if we were in search of one right now. :)

Very nice! It's always so fun to get new things, especially big items like furniture. ESPECIALLY when you finally get something genuinely new rather than just a "new" hand me down. Congrats!

ooo...I really like it! Now I know why you wanted to know about seat covers! You'll definitely want it for those chairs---I know how messy Jeff can get :)
