New floors










I was so busy reading everyone else's blogs yesterday that I forgot to write my own!! It was a crazy night watching Dancing with the Stars and getting ready for preschool too!

Dustin's upstairs installing the new laminate flooring we bought! I'm excited to finally have nice flooring in my kitchen. I've been dealing with that cheap white flooring for 4 years now. Even when it was clean it didn't look clean. And it got dirty instantly! So I used my super shopping skills and found 5 new boxes of laminate flooring at a yard sale! Then I had to find matching flooring and buy 3 more boxes. Steve was whimping out of wanting to install it, so I called around to a few handymen - including Dustin. Dustin was the best deal! He's doing a good job up there and has more than 1/2 laid! I was teaching preschool all day, so I just told the kids I had monsters living upstairs! They didn't seem to mind - they were pretty much noisier than the pounding anyway.


Emily and Ella looked adorable today - here they are all ready for preschool and babysitters!

Oh, it looks SO nice! Dustin is doing a great job and it looks like a brand new kitchen! I think it will really make the whole house look great!
The girls do look cute - they are really growing up. Ella's hair is getting long!
Well, I am glad that you are getting the floors done and can't wait to see them.

Wow- it looks SO good so far! I am excited to see the finished results. It adds so much to your kitchen. You are a super shopper and I need to take lessons! How cute that you told your preschoolers that there were monsters upstairs. :)

Love your cute pics and blog so far...
