New Flooring

The floors are done, more or less. They are coming back to fix a few things next week, and we haven't finished putting all of the new baseboards on, but other than that we are good to go. I realized that I always take pictures of projects at night, because the kids are down, and the house is the cleanest, but then you don't see all of the wonderful light that we get from my large windows. Well, pictures at night may not be such a bad idea because the sun streaming in made the picture hard to see the colors of things, the floor is not as red as it looks in some of the pictures. I have also realized that my kitchen pictures have given the impression that our cabinets are black, they are not. They are actually a really dark brownish color, so I threw in a picture of the cabinet next to a black frame so you can see the difference.

Aaron is mowing the lawn now, I caught up on bills, and all of the laundry is folded and put away, so we are well on our way back to our normal life, we hope.



Aaron thought we would be able to pull up all of the old flooring ourselves. HA! Long story short, we will never be doing that again. We tried to keep our TV area in tact for as long as possible, cutting the carpet out around it until the last minute.





We are putting in the new baseboards ourselves, and it has been an interesting learning process, but I am happy with the way it came out, the ones that are done at least.

See they are not black, but really dark brown.
