gratitude

we're having a few friends over for dinner tonight and it got me to thinking about how much i enjoy preparing and gathering over a meal with people i care about. today i'm thankful for a place to gather- our charmingly beat up, 1950's chrome and formica table with pocket leaves and 1960's school house chairs rescued from Holy Names Academy here in Seattle ...


it's not in perfect shape...

but it has such charming details!

it can seat a crowd...

or just the two of us!


i can hardly wait for our dinner tonight!

what do you have gratitude for today?
