Carpet Update!

It has now been about two weeks since we found out the carpet was coming a bit early. In that time we moved every piece of furniture we own out of the rooms being carpeted through the halls, down the stairs, out the front door and into the garage! It felt like we were moving again. We ripped up and rolled up all the carpet and then had to clean every room because the pad had disintegrated and left 1/2 inch coatings of dust over every floor. The carpet was delivered and took over 7 hours to install (but it looked amazing)! We then had to carry everything out of the garage, back through the front door, down the hallways and back up the stairs! While i had been able to help move the stuff out of the house i killed my back doing it so poor chris moved most of the stuff back in my himself and enlisted a little bit of help for the larger items.

At the end of it all, the house looks brand new! The color is exactly what we wanted, Cooper hasn't ruined it yet and the new carpet smell is fading!

Can't wait for you all to come see it ....just remember to take your shoes off!
