This weekend the pergo floors are going in. Things are coming along. I still feel pretty useless at this point, but Gerald assures me my day is coming! I'm ready to be settled in our new home. We're sill waiting on the carpet so we don't have a move in date yet, but hopefully we will know something at the beginning of the week.



Formal dining room.
This is our master bathroom. The floors were white tile. We replaced them and painted the bathroom a dark chocolate color.
This is the master bedroom.

This is Miles room. The boys rooms are identical. It was hard to pick a color for Gavin's room because he's no longer a baby. I'm having a hard time admitting that one!
Miles brought his tools to the house to "help" Daddy. As for the socks with the crocks, sometimes it's just not worth convincing a three old about fashion.

The house is coming along great. The inside will be completely painted today and the tile in the bathrooms will be finished. Gerald will start laying the pergo floors in the formal dining room, kitchen, and the eat in kitchen today. The goal is to finish that this weekend. The carpet goes in next week. We don't have an exact date yet, but once that is done we are ready to move in. Our appliances come in on Tuesday. I posted a few photos. It's kind of hard to tell from the pictures, but I hope to get some more to post today. It's looking great. I feel like we are gutting the house and redoing it. We're putting in all new floors, painting, new appliances, blinds, adding knobs to the cabinets, new facets, door handles, fans.......it will seem like a new house when we're finished. It's turning out so great that we feel like it must be someone else's house. The Lord has blessed us more than we could have asked or hoped for in this house. He is so good to us!! Now we're just ready to live in it. We're so excited!!

This picture is looking into the master bedroom. Off the master is a sitting room. We will probably use it as a play room so toys will no longer overrun our living room!! We will keep the french doors closed and hang a curtain so we don't have to look at the toys. At least that is the plan for now.
This is a photo of the formal dining room. It has already been painted. The color looks a little different in person. The formal living and dining room are the first rooms in the house. We are replacing the carpet with pergo in the dining area and carpet in the formal living room.
This photo is of the eat in kitchen. We will be putting pergo floors in here.
This photo is of our kitchen. The tile floor had already been torn out. We're replacing the floors with pergo. Gerald will be starting that today.
