Home Sweet Home

The day we received our keys: December 8, 2013.



Then the work began. Cleaning, painting, ripping up carpet, removing trip, laying tile and soon new carpet. 


The living room when we moved in...


The almost finished living room! 


My wonderful husband has spent many, many hours pulling up carpet (actually that was the easy part) and laying tile. This tile is awesome (thanks Kevin and Melanie for introducing it to us!), it looks like wood floors, but obviously isn't. It will go best over our floors since we have radiant floor heating. 



At this point, Brian is finished laying the tile and is starting to add the grout. He is spending a lot of energy and time on this floor. and it is greatly appreciated by his wife (me). 
It is a lot of fun, and there is a lot more work to be done.
