Last week when my dad was here, he and my brother worked hard and refinished our table...
You know I've been thinking about doing this for a while, but he told me that he wanted to give it a shot when he came for Thanksgiving.
The transformation and restoration that they brought forth was amazing!!
We can't wait for you all to come back to gather around this table...
a collage I made for my dad to thank him...
(by the way, that's down in our basement which is painted and almost ready to carpet!!!)
our first guests at the dinner table at date night on Saturday night
Bill, here is the crack that you glued together when the table was delivered to us in pieces 2 1/2 years ago.
My dad filled it with cherry sawdust and mixed it with some glue to create a filler.
Look how beautifully it turned out...
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
-Leonard Cohen
giving thanks for this reminder in our midst of restoration and beauty and hope...
