Cisco 2600 Point-To-Point T1 Line Configuration

Ok, I have my "theoretical T1" (loopback) working between the two routers (this is in preparation for the T1 being installed tomorrow), and when I asked a question regarding network setup, I was told I should place the routers inside my firewall.
First, here is my network setup:

<Building 1>                                                                                                          <Building 2>

       <ISP>---------------------------------------------<Internet>----------------------------------<ISP>
              |                                                                                                                       |
         -----------------------------------------------------                                          ---------------------------------------------
        |Firewall w/ VPN Tunnel to Building 2             |                                        |FireWall w/ VPN Tunnel to Building 1   |
        |6 public IPs, 1 private ip(10.0.0.1), using NAT|                                        |1 public IP, 1 private IP (10.10.0.1,NAT|
         -----------------------------------------------------                                          ---------------------------------------------
              |                                                                                                                       |
       Servers & Clients (10.0.x.x)                                                                          Servers & Clients (10.10.x.x)

At Building 2 we have a VoIP telephone system that integrated with our PBX at Building 1.

Because of the crummy connection via DSL to the 'Net, they do not work. So instead of having bad phones, we went ahead and purchased a point to point T1 connection.

From an earlier question, I found that it would be best to put the T1 behind one firewall, and setup my network as follows:

<Building 1>                                                                                                          <Building 2>

          <ISP>
              |                                                                                                                      
         -----------------------------------------------------                                        
        |Firewall  w/VPN from other location s            |                                        
        |6 public IPs, 1 private ip(10.0.0.1), using NAT|                                      
         -----------------------------------------------------
                             |
          ------------------------------------------                                                       -------------------------------------------
         |2600 with T1 Connection (10.0.0.2)|-------------------<T1>-----------------|2600 with T1 Connection (10.10.0.2)|
          ------------------------------------------                                                       -------------------------------------------
                             |                                                                                                               |
       Servers & Clients (10.0.x.x)                                                                          Servers & Clients (10.10.x.x)

Is this the best way to do this? If so, how do I get everything to talk to each other? I have NO experience with Cisco routers, and have accomplished getting the T1 link to work, and I can route Building 1 router to building 2 router, but it will not go any further. My only other alternative is to go back to the other way I was thinking, which was to put the T1 outside the firewall, then use VPN to connect the two networks together. There also are other remote sites that contact the firewall in building 1 for connectivity. Why couldn't that DSL line work?!?!!? :-D

Thanks for the help everyone, I look forward to your responses.

Thanks for your help! I had to modify a few other settings, but the largest problem was the static routes. But I have a clear understanding of how the routing tables work now thanks to you! Once again, thanks!
