It's here!!!!

They just delivered and set-up our new kitchen table. It is gorgeous!!! We'd not actually seen the table before. When we went to HOM Furniture, they didn't have the round one on display--only the rectangle one. So we knew sort of what it looked like, but not exactly. I got Darin up from his nap (he'd only been in bed 15 minutes) so he could watch them put it together. I asked the delivery guy about the weird delivery time estimate and he said it is all done by computer. The computer estimates how long it will take the drive from the warehouse to the first house, how long it will take to set-up, etc. We were the 6th stop out of 9. He said they usually deliver to about 12 houses in Rochester each Tuesday (their Rochester delivery day). We will be having our own HOM Furniture come March.

An interesting tidbit about the table--the top of the table is actually made from 1 piece of wood. Then they cut the leaves out of it. There are 6 leaves. I think we'll attempt to store them underneath the spare bedroom bed downstairs. I opted to leave the aprons (the part that hangs down on the edge of the leaf) off so that they would store a bit more compactly. They have to be stored flat so they don't bend.
