Our family room "den"
DURING CONSTRUCTION.... RIPPING OUT AWFUL DARK BROWN CARPET..... DON'T WORRY THERE IS STILL VINYL FOR YOU TO SEE
In the same room as the pictures with the fireplace we put in new maple floors. Notice the wonderful yellowish vinyl flooring which was just partially covered by old dark brown carpet. Debbie and Frank had the priviledge of helping us move furniture and rip out the carpet during their vacation visiting us. I was quite glad Frank was here to help move our furniture since our couch can barely fit through the door. Thanks Frank and Debbie!!

Summer time..... remodeling
Well, our house now looks like someone broke in and rummaged through all of our things after getting remodeling projects on their way with our contractor, who is wonderful. Carl has also been working like crazy after work to do many of his own projects to compliment theirs. He is the best husband and comes home after a 10 hour day and will spend until 11:30pm-12am working on projects. I don't know how he does it! Recently, he has tiled our laundry room, put up new base modeling, and began to change some of our kitchen cabinets. We have also had a new fireplace framed in with a gas stove insert, a larger window cut in our kitchen and this afternoon, we will be getting our granite countertops. They will be a welcome change from our old countertops and especially from most recent days with no countertops. I am also looking forward a brand new dishwasher, sink, faucet, hot water tap, and garbage disposal! Supposedly our dishwasher is one where you do not need to rinse off dishes and it can sense how clean or dirty they are, so it will run for longer or shorter; whatever need be! I will let you know what I think..... And our sink will no longer be in the corner, so we will be able to get into the dishwasher and use the sink at the same time!! This is a luxury I have been missing!
