Our first REAL kitchen table

We finally bought our first real kitchen table, and by real I mean not a card table with folding chairs. YAY, we are stepping up in the world. I was SO excited about getting this table, and Clay surprised me by having it mostly set up by the time I got home. However, when I walked into the kitchen I realized that the table looked A LOT bigger in our tiny apartment than it did in the store. It is hilarious. It looks huge, it's a black high-top table, which I love, but it's kind of funny looking in our small kitchen. So I guess we'll just have a good laugh until we someday buy a house. 

What a mess! This is our front room as he assembled the table :)

I had to laugh when I read this. It brought back so many memories of when Ryan and I were renting the town home in P.G We didn't have a table at all. Finally we bought one for around $99. I had never been so happy in my life. Gotta love it!
Congrats.

Congratulations!! I remember when we got our first table. Heck, I remember how excited I was when we got our second one too! Look at you growing up! Sam and I also made a household purchase today. We got a shed for our backyard. I have to admit that I am pretty excited about it. Yea for more organization!!

And YEA for the table!!!! I want to see a finished product though! Clay looked like he was really workin hard on it :) I told Ryan that we'll know when we've really made it when we have our own washer and dryer and an ice-maker on the fridge! That'll be the day!

HEY!! It is such a small (blogging) world! I am so glad you came across my blog! I never see anyone from high school anymore so it is nice to remember that that part of my life did exist:) You are so dang cute and you and Clay make the cutest couple EVER! I hope you don't mind if I look at your blog once in awhile to see what you are up to. Thanks for the comment!

Did you go to Ikea?? I love setting the stuff up after we buy it together. You're so adorable. How did you like the mission reunion?? Sometimes when i get with chris and his mission clan i feel so incredibly left out. But maybe thats just me.

Congrats on the new table! We still have one that we got second hand from my sister. It suits us just fine, free of cost!

For a partial and cut it'll be $65, and then $50 for an all over. If there is more than one color in the partial, it could go up a bit to $75. Let me know if you want to set up an appointment!
