I can't PIP, but I am so excited that my new dining table and chairs arrived today! I was nervous about how it would look, but it's perfect. Looks like it was made for my kitchen. We have an unusually large dining area (no formal dining room) and got a really long table--132" with boards! We can seat everyone for Christmas Eve at one table this year. It makes my whole house look SOOO much better!! I don't have to be embarrassed anymore about our totally awful super old table from DH's bachelor pad with a completely dinged/scratched up top, and various un-matching old chairs. Yippeee! Merry Christmas to me.
Also, we finally worked out our plans for Christmas Day. Everything was up in the air b/c DH's mom changed her usual big Christmas party. I'm really happy to have everything settled (Santa time; going to my big family Christmas for a few hours, then dinner at DH's brother's house).

So much better to have a table that fits the space and suits your needs. I have a 96" table at our cabin, it maximizes the usability of the, otherwise, small space. I wish I had more a more suitable table at home, we are still using DH's bachelor table, 13 years in.
I love a great dining room table. We actually got ours before we were married and split the cost of it. It’s been brought a few times over the many years we’ve been together if we ever split who gets the table.
