old and new


This is James and Daniel in deep thought about taking the legs off of the *big brown eating table*
We've had it for almost 18 years. It was old when we got it.......and if IT could talk, I would finish the sentences.  I DO know the stores it would tell!  Six kids, holidays, friends, missionaries, visiting preachers, Sunday afternoon dinner, pizza, *the works*, cars, ponies, school books, birthdays........

The top of it hung onto the furry stuff on the backside of plastic table-cloths.  Nice?  Not.
Well, the new one is all slick and that won't happen again.


This is the new one.........


We will make good memories on it, too.



Days where my husband gives BOTH of my Snoopy coffee cups to somebody else.


birthdays, holidays, pizza
games, coloring, toys
family
friends

The table was GIVEN to you? How awesome is that? I'm so very happy for you; it looks lovely.

The chairs are killin me......I would never get upholstered chairs....and now I have six. I was hoping to recover them with six different fabrics.....but the people that put these chairs together weren't playing.

Michele you sounded just like Mom, always a tablecloth on not matter what....it is decorative to have a nice tablecloth on, does the one I gave you fit it,or do you not like the plastic kind? Kristi
Mo said…
Yep. I'll put table cloths on a nice or not so nice table.

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have always been interested in the *family tree*, dates, p
