here is our dining room before we painted and with our old table at Christmas time. adam's parents gave us this table from adam's childhood when we got married and it has served us well...just starting to get crowded when we have people over, which we love to do! red is one of my favorite decorating colors, but for some reason i started to feel overwhelmed by it in here...so we painted.
assembling...one reason ikea furniture is so much more affordable...you pick up and assemble yourself
without the leaves-new table, paint, curtains
with the leaves in...we look forward to all the mouths of family and friends we will feed around this table.
hung some pictures on the wall finally
here is my photo of the week of the kiddos playing their new favorite game using nearly all the chairs, stuffed animals, and books we own for their train ride...miles is less than pleased with his role
thanks for the tulips sweet rikki!
our old table repurposed for craft/school table for now...new shelf in the playroom for toys, craft/school supplies
this is the only picture i could find of my disaster of a baking supplies area in the mudroom. graham is so little! we got a new shelf and my organized-purger-husband-on a mission came through and look!
goodbye open shelves...hello shelf with doors. *deep sigh*
adam is off this week...hip hip hooray so i'm sure he has some more projects up his sleeve...off to enjoy the fam!

Love it, Ellen. I really, like the table and how many people will fit around it. And I think the blue is very soothing and inviting. Can't wait to see it all in person.
it all looks wonderful Ellen! Storage makes such a big difference doesn't it? And that color in the dining room looks beautiful. I see you talked Adam into the bench- good job! ;)
I love your house! It has so much charm and soul to it.
Great choices! I especially like the table. Can I sleep on it?
