From vacuum to Broom

I'm excited to reveal our new kitchen and dinning room floor. No more scrubbing the dinning room after a nasty spill. I can now just simply get a paper towel and wipe that spill right up. It might seem like a simple thing, but it really is the simple things in life that make a big difference.


saying good-bye to the carpet


this picture was a little scary for me to look at- on the surface things appeared to be "relatively" clean, but underneath it was a completely different creature. YUCK!!






Not going to miss this- one bit


time for the glue


ahhhh, so new, so refreshing


the kids did a good job keeping on eye on the project






yeah, I had a toilet in my entry hallway, a hutch in my living room, and a stove and refrigerator in my dining room, but it was soooo worth the 2 weeks of disorganization and chaos.


why not do the bathroom too while we're at it?


new kitchen


new dining room

the final pictures don't do true justice to how good the floor looks. I guess you will just have to stop in and see for yourself.

  1. It's beautiful! Our carpet in the dining room was nasty too when we pulled it up - and you've had yours a lot longer then we did and with more kids. I'm sure it wasn't a pretty sight. I wish we could see the real thing. Maybe someday we can meet up again. :)
