Here we go again...

Let's try this again! I was inspired by all of the fun family blogs that I enjoy reading so much, that I started my own. This was just my blog, but I changed it up to be a family blog. Less selfish in my opinion.
And this entry, I guess, is inspired by Amanda Travis. She and Matt recently gave their laundry room a little makeover. (Check out the photos on the link on the right side.) I realized that we, too, had done quite the makeover to our home in the past week. I thought I'd share photos of the work. My dad and brother came in during the week and redid our floor. We used to have this gross carpet that had stains all over it. We now have amazing laminate flooring installed. Its basically done with some trim work and door jams needing to be installed. One of our goals in buying this place was to buy it cheap and fix it up. That way we could sell it for a profit in a few years. But here are some of the photos of my dad and brother's work! (And we also got our new sectional in and new blinds up just in time for Super Bowl!)





And Bogey loves the new floor too!
