Kitchen table update and a shout out to the Hubs







Our old table 






So I hinted recently about a few home updates and one of those is our eat in kitchen. We don’t have a dining room so making the most of our space is crucial. I have wanted a rectangle farmhouse table for a long time but didn’t think it would fit in our space. Well I started thinking if we get rid of some other pieces of furniture in that area we could probably make it work and viola… it worked! We got rid of our make shift side board. I usually do a lot of seasonal decorations on it so I will have to come up with other ways to decorate from now on but I think the use of that back wall for the bench on the new table and the room it created in that area totally make up for it! Our round table isn’t gone yet. We are currently selling it but I wanted to start using the “new” to us table so we switched them out ahead of the hopeful sale of our old one. This new table cost me, a whopping $85 bucks. That’s right, that’s not a typo. A friend texted me as soon as she saw this table for sale on Facebook. Thanks Hannah!!!!! And I drove over to see it and snatched it up. We are currently using our old black chairs with it but as soon as we sell the old table I have these chairs in mind to round out the look. I also want to paint our walls. But Rome wasn't built in day...
We christened the new table this week with my husband’s 34th birthday dinner with my in-laws. A menu of Chicken street tacos and Krispy Kreme original glazed doughnuts… his choice. He is a picky one. Really he should be 60 instead of 34,  if we went on how he acts alone. He really is an old timer. He should have been born years before his time. He is one of a kind and tells it how it is. He keeps me grounded and even when we don’t agree I know he has good reason for his stance on things. He is one of the smartest people I have ever known, loyal, hardworking, trustworthy, and caring; however he is one of those people that you cannot read. He doesn’t wear his feelings on his sleeve, ever. You would never know how much thought and love he has inside because he just isn’t the kind to show it. He is all ours and we are super proud of him. Love you Babe, no matter if we did fight last night because you thought it would be a great idea to try and move the bottom half of the new bunk bed down the hall alone, when I had already told you that I would help you once I got through putting Sawyer down to bed… and you got them stuck! And then you get mad and say I am making things more difficult on you… really? I think you did that all on your own bud! He was tired and didn’t want to wait, that I get. But moving a full sized bed down a narrow hallway alone just isn’t going to end well babe… What goes through your mind sometimes I will never know… I still Love you though!  And our boys adore you… Happy 34th Birthday!

Talk to yall soon.
Love Heather.
