October 08 - FLOORS!

Two days before we left for Michelle's wedding we decided to have our hardwood floors refinished while we were gone. This meant we had two days to pack for the wedding and to move everything we owned into the kitchen and garage! We took our plants to Chad's mom's house and Grandma and Grandpa Morris watched Nali while we were away. It was a lot of work at the last minute (literally), but it was absolutely worth all the work and the money! Have a look:

Before - Corner in one of the bedrooms

After - Corner in one of the bedrooms

Before - Hallway

After - Hallway

Before - Livingroom


After - Livingroom
Sara - showing off the beautiful floors.

Out of all the projects we've done on the house this is the one and only one we've paid to have someone else do for us. We debated beforehand about weither or not it was going to be worth it, but after coming home and seeing the beautiful floors (and smelling the intensity of those refinishing chemicals - yuck!) we decided it was well worth every single penny (and really nice to have a break from at least one of the projects...)

It looks really nice. I can't wait to come see your house sometime (this summer at Jim's wedding?).
