My very own "big kid" table

On Saturday a very special item was delivered to our house - a beautiful new dining room set. My grandmother passed away suddenly in September and my mom decided that she wanted to buy my sister and I each something special with her inheritance. Since we shared many a meal with my grandmother and cooking and entertaining people was one of her favourite pasttimes, we agreed that a dining room set would be one of the best ways to preserve my grandparents memory and make sure that our family traditions continue.

I think my grandparents would be proud to know that 50+ years after they came to Canada with very little, they were able to leave something not only for their kids, but for their grandchildren as well. Thanks, Mom for such a beautiful keepsake.
