Tonight I will be celebrating my first of 5 Thanksgivings! Yes, it is a bit early but why not? Thankgiving is one of my favorite holidays. There is nothing like sitting around a big table with the people you love the most. You have family and friends around you and a bunch a great food in front of you. I absolutely love Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is a busy time for everyone – especially the host and/or hostess! This year I am hosting one of the five Thanksgiving meals so I am trying to get prepared. Back in April I got 2 gorgeous puppies that have completely stolen my heart. Unfortunately they have also destroyed pretty much every square in of carpeting in my home. So, a week before Thanksgiving my home will be getting a huge make-over. My husband and I have decided we are done with carpet and trying to mask our puppies’ mistakes. We are having wood flooring installed. The timing couldn’t be better because the floors are getting installed right before our family comes to visit! I know the home will look perfect for our guests!

Well, as I am preparing for the new wood floors I thought this would be a great time to upgrade our dining room. Obviously this is a thought on a lot of peoples’ minds and the holiday’s drawer closer and closer.  Hosts are concerned about the dining room and the guest bedrooms. Fortunately I don’t have any overnight guests since our family lives only 30 minutes away but I do want to put my focus and energy on the dining room.

For a few years now my husband and I have been eyeing Rustic Furniture Pro’s Bardean Table. Of course I see this rustic table a lot more than he does, but we have both fallen in love with it. From the moment we moved into our house we pictured the rustic table in our dining room as a place where all of our family and friends would gather around for wonderful meals together. I painted the room with a warm neutral to compliment the teak wood tones. Now all I need is that beautiful rustic table!

This Thanksgiving not only will we have new wood floors but we have also decided that it is time to get that Bardean Table we have been eyeing for so long. I think this will be an amazing Thanksgiving. I wish all of you a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday as well!
