ANOTHER new table

Like I said before, we've spent a lot of time lately at American Home's going out of business sale. One of the first times we went in there, we saw a table we really liked. We've been wanting a new table for a while now, but there was nothing wrong with the table we had, and we figured we would just wait until Nate finished school. Anyway, this table was still there every time we went back. As the days went on we started thinking more seriously about it. We finally offered a price for it--$500--which they refused and told us the lowest they could go was $675. Its regular price is just under $2,000. So we decided against it. But the table was still there day after day and we finally decided after looking around to compare prices that there was no way we would find a deal like this again for a table of this quality and size (5 ft plus a leaf and 6 chairs). So after days of debating, we bought the table. I listed our old table on craigslist and had it sold and gone within a few hours. (I had so many people call and email about that table, it was crazy!) It was a glass table that we bought when we got married and I am so glad to have it gone. It was impossible to keep clean. (Sorry about all the pictures--they are mostly for my mom's benefit. I've been talking to her a lot about the table. Also, the wood is not as dark as it looks in the pictures and there is one more chair still in the garage and the leaf too.)
