New Floors!

For the past 5 years, we have wanted to get new floors in our home. We always thought we would replace the carpet with more carpet so we were waiting until the kids outgrew the "spilling everything all over the floor" phase.

Since we realized that phase was not ending soon, we looked into laminate flooring. It would be more forgiving to the spills and accidents and would allow us to get new floors sooner. It was a great choice.

In addition to the new floors, we also decided to remove the half way that separated our Family room and kitchen. Who knew eliminating that small wall would change the entire look of our downstairs!

 It took a week to remove & replace the floors. It was well worth the wait:

In addition to the wood laminate downstairs, we replaced the linolime in the bathrooms and carpet in all the bedrooms. It truly feels like a brand new house!
  

While the men were working on our floors, they found a unique place to store the toilet!
