Table Makeover

Last night Christian said, "since you've been re-doing the table I guess you haven't had much time to blog". I'm pretty sure that was his way of kindly saying a post is well overdue since Brady had been growing and learning new things by the day!
In regards to the table...we were given a table from family friend's of Christian. It came with 3 leaves and more chairs than we know what to do with. It had been it their family for over 20 years so it was definitely "used", but it did the job so we were happy to have it!
I never really liked it from the beginning so a few weeks ago I tried taking a can of black spray paint to one of the chairs to see how it looked. I then roughed it up with some sand paper, put a couple coats of polyurethane, and voila...I loved it! So after many more cans of spray paint and spending most of Brady's naps for about a week working on it...we have a "new" table!
