Around the House

I got a new kitchen table yesterday. I paid 250$ and I got it at W-Mart. See - I'm not proud. But I am very proud of my new beautiful table! We had a table there for years, but then it became the dining room table. So for the past couple of years we have eaten every meal at the dining room table. That is just too far for me to haul drinks and catsup three times a day! And the kids were getting too rambunctious around my china cabinet. Now if this corner will just stay perfect, I can tackle the rest of the house with a light heart - like maybe that counter with all the cat food!
Something has eaten my winter garden already. Here are a few things I salvaged. Autumn color!
This is my goddaughter, Tricky Woo, running me through with her blade.

And here is my husband. I won't bother explaining! ;)

Very nice table! I like your hardwood floors- I have a thing for flooring. LOL Are those leaf placemats? How fun!

Thanks, Tanya. Yes, I think I got the leaf placemats at Marshall's. I cannot find the other two for some reason.
Don't worry, Jennifer! I have already made it clear that a glass top is a necessity! It will probably cost as much as the table and chairs! But it is better than losing the table!
