A New Kitchen Table

Last night we went shopping for a new kitchen table. I don't know if anybody else has had this problem but we have a glass table right now and with a kid you just can't keep it clean. Plus, we wanted a table with a leaf in it so when we have guest over for raclette (hoping I spelled that correctly) or fondue we have plenty of room and when its just the 3 of us we can have a small table. Our first stop was Whitlock's which is where we got Ryan's new bed but it was a bust. So we tried this place Sam knew of in Greenville named Jason's Furniture. We found a table we really LOVED but were skeptical at first. It was on sale for $899 for the table and 6 chairs but the sales guy said that sales were down and that they would give it to us for $750. We decided to go check one more store and get something to eat so we could talk. We tried Rooms To Go and found something very similar but we just didn't like it as well. We went and ate at McDonald's as a treat for Ryan b/c he was being so good. You can imagine how well it goes over with a two year old getting into the car and getting out of the car....going in this store and then that store. He really did do well. We decided to get the set we liked at Jason's. We are both sooooo excited b/c for once we are going to have a table that we don't have to cover with a table cloth every time somebody comes over. And it is going to look so good in our kitchen/dining room area. It is simple and antique/rustic looking. It is perfect! As soon as I get a picture I will post it so everyone can see!
