New Table!

-

It is a very rare occasion that Matt and I purchase furniture, so I thought it was okay to post our new kitchen table because I am soooo excited!
The family went to the furniture store to look for a table and chairs last Saturday. We picked out a lovely table that we thought would be great for us. When I went back a few days later to purchase it, Brower asked to go to the bathroom before we looked at the tables. So, while I was waiting outside the bathroom, I saw a table that wasn't even out on the floor yet. Long story short....I bought the table that Matt had never seen, along with some awesome chairs that he hadn't seen either. I was a little worried since he is the one with all of the decorative sense in the family(he comes from Alexis and Julie Pond...it's in his blood).
Turns out he loves my choice. We were finallyable to move our dining room table out of the kitchen and out where it belong, in the dining room!

I like your model. He sure is handsome. You don't need Matt to help you. I think you made an excellent choice. Good thing Brow needed to go to the bathroom!

We got 8 chairs, so everyone will fit. We won't put all of the them out until we need them though. There is a lot more room with only 6 out.
We pull up Ira's high chair to the table when we eat. The dining room will be for special dinners, or dinners with guests.

Rug

Here is the rug that I chose. I brought a friend along to the store who is an interior designer and she told me that the choice Matt and I had made wouldn't match our kitchen, which is in the very next room. So I decided to look around a little bit and we found this very nice rug in the slightly damaged section. You can see on the edge in front that it doesn't lay completely flat. With that being the only problem I decided to buy the better rug and spend the same amount I would have on the other one. But I got a much better product. So, once again, I got something other than what Matt and I had agreed upon. But he was happy with the selection. It's a good thing my friend came with me! Next purchase....two chairs for either end of the table.

Flowers For My Birthday

Matt has been out of town on my birthday for about five years running. It's not a big deal to me, but he has a tough time with it. I teach kickboxing on Thursday mornings. Today in class the lady from the front desk came in with this pretty arrangement of flowers and said they were from Matt for my birthday. He wanted to make it a spectacle in front of everyone so that I would feel special. After the gym I met some friends at the Ninja Steakhouse where they cook the food in front of you. The children were entertained! It was a yummy lunch and I was happy to get to do something out of the ordinary. After that I came home, put Ira and Selah down for a nap and tried to take one myself. After all, it is my birthday! Besides, I told a friend I'd teach her kickboxing class tonight. So I'm going to need some extra energy. So, the day has been nice for me. Only one thing has bugged me all day....Selah has acquired this hideous screech. She just belts out a high pitched ...
