We do have a large dining table, but put in the casual lounge area off the kitchen (which worked so much better anyhow), and set the dining area up as a play area.

It was one of the priorities when building our house. <br /><br />Funny thing, I never thought about needing to have her closer. Although, it does make it easier for her old parents to not have to schlep up and down the stairs when she wants us to join in her play. <br /><br />Kelly, when we first got married I had all these grand ideas of a formal dining room. We used it on occasion, but so much of the time it was empty. What a waste! A playroom is the perfect solution for us. :)Shady Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05955726656904697280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-349368481722377215.post-44850032095656185952010-09-02T04:55:24.652-07:002010-09-02T04:55:24.652-07:00I have never had any use for a dining room.

Even though we tend to have one ear listening at all times, it still helps having them a little closer.<br /><br />NICE hardwood floor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07183605567090197137noreply@blogger.com
