Re-do!

Our upstairs flooring really needed to be re-done! With 2 kids and 3 dogs, and 9 years later, it is time. We were planning on ripping up our carpet in the loft, but then decided to add the hallway too. I really can't believe that we decided to this at this point in the year, but sometimes you just have to do it.  The kids were a huge help, thankfully!

Of course, once the floors were up, I couldn't stand the thought of not repainting! Even though it meant a lot more work, it was needed.

So after several trips to Home Depot and a couple of tries with the paint color, and repainting (ugh!), we finally got a color we liked. We spent the rest of the weekend working, painting, and learning how to put in the floors. We only got through the loft...the hallway will have to wait, but we are happy with the results.

Now we will live in a construction zone for a little bit longer until we can finish the rest of the hallway. Someday, we will get to the bedrooms too, but that will have to wait!
