Where have I been!


No where really. We have just been doing a ton of "do-it-yourself-ers". Whew! We finally buckled down and painted our entryway and living room. We also have been picking out slate tile for around our fireplace. We're going with "Violent Storm" 12x12 at Lowe's. This project might just start up this coming weekend. And lastly we found wood flooring which will suffice {with our budget}. We get to pick up the wood from the warehouse on Thursday. Next, the wood sits in our house for a week to acclimate. THEN we begin laying that down everywhere, but the kitchen and bedrooms! I'm actually looking forward to this project because we will have excellent supervision! Our great friend, Reed basically lays all the floors for his dad's company. {if you clicked to this link, please note that pretty much all the examples of floors... Reed did! And the last picture is of his own home.} He is going to take the time after work to help us do this one right! Thanks Reed... and Amber (his patient wife)!

Ah, what a boring post! Bummer.

But I guess this means the "after" pictures will be coming in a few weeks!
