A surprise Christmas present

by Gary on December 19, 2006

We have a new dining room table! Most of you know that we were borrowing the table that belongs to Phyllis’ sister for a couple of years while they were building their house. When we went to Wilmington in October we brought the table back to them. So we’ve been using folding tables since then. A few days ago we received a check in the mail from someone we don’t even know–someone from a supporting church. With this money we were able to buy a dining room table. We got one that has a rustic look. It’s 44 inches wide, 72 inches long with no leaves, 90 inches with one leaf, and 108 inches with two leaves.

I like it! Praise God for His wondrous provision! It looks like you could fit about 12 people!

I like it too. It’s a little tall, though, so we’ll eventually need to get some taller chairs 🙂
