new table!

we've been in utah for 5 weeks exactly today! we're loving being married, living together, job searching, meeting new people and all that good stuff. a couple days after we arrived in utah, we went searching for some furniture, a couch and a dining table. we found both pieces at DI, perfect!!! it was inexpensive and fit perfectly in our house! only problem was we had no chairs to go around the table...

we sat on wedding gifts instead....

this happened for a couple of nights, until we decided it was time to unpack and store all the boxes. we finally broke down and bought some folding chairs to use. matching dining chairs would be $60 a piece so folding chairs would have to work. neither of us really liked how it looked. we want our house to look purty! soooo.......my mr. fryer convinced me that it would be worth it to buy a full dining set. a new set would last longer and would be about the same price as buying a bunch of chairs to go with the current table. 

we finally decided on a table and it was a very very happy day when it was delivered!!!

it is a beautiful dark oak, counter height table with bar stool chairs. it has a fold-away leaf underneath it too! when the leaf is in, the table expands into a square that can fit 8 chairs around it! we love it!

it is truly the little things in life that make life good :)

on a different note, my mr. fryer is off a mission for the national guard. i just dropped him off this morning...i'm a sad larissa...i miss my hubby already and i can't imagine how lonely this month will be without him. it is going to be such a fun trip for him though! lots of good experiences and fun stuff!iI only wish he could come back home to me every night. oh well, i will try to survive until i can be with him again.

life is good :)
