We need chairs....these are the only two remaining of the original set, and my parents have three chairs they're bringing for us, but maybe someday we'll get some new ones and refinish the table, but for now, it's nice just to have a dining room, and I'm sure my grandparents would be happy to know that their furniture is going to be loved and enjoyed in our house.
The leaves come out and make the table longer, but this is how it looks with them pushed in.
I don't know if we'll keep the bookshelf there and put stuff on it or if we'll move it somewhere else.
The girls play upstairs a lot more now (of course, they also bring toys downstairs to play, too....but they're learning that they then have to carry them back upstairs when they're done, so I don't know how long they'll do that. It makes it quieter downstairs sometimes, which is nice, though I know there will come a day when I MISS all of the noise!
Now the room is ready to host its first Thanksgiving on Thursday!
