The Table



I just happened to be looking at furniture on Craigslist. I just happened to be looking even though I had been told a few times that we weren't buying anymore furniture until the den was complete. I just happened to find this table. It's beautiful isn't it?! I went to look at this table and found what I later told my mom was a "jackpot." A man was selling everything in his vacation house. The house was beautiful and had several items of interest. I quickly sized up everything I wanted and went back to report to Andrew. When I first saw the table I almost immediately dismissed it based on the size of the thing. It was huge!! I told Andrew this thing would take several men to carry and I couldn't even fathom how we could get it in our house. I had all but given up. Andrew was sure I was overexaggerating but would soon learn I wasn't. After having 3 women and 3 men move the table through a giant hole in our house where our sliding glass door once stood, the table was in place! I will say that it is big, heavy, and magnificent! It is 10ft long and 4 ft wide. I can't wait for the many memories that will be made around this table in the years to come!
