Alas, floors will be coming!

It looks like we are good to go with the flooring!! We are both extremely excited for it as we are slightly tired of looking at the carpet. We are getting all the carpet removed from the halls, living room, and family room. Then we are also removing the current tile in the dining room, kitchen, and foyer and replacing that with the new tile. After much thought (and I mean A LOT) we have decided to go with the third picture from our last post. It should really fit in the house nicely. I have gone ahead and put in another picture of what it looks like with more than one tile (though it is still really hard to get a good picture to show-its the darker of the two showing). We are scheduled to have the installers start on the 28th of this month and they should be done that week!

So as can be imagined Merry Christmas to us! We were looking forward to decorating the house for the holidays, however, since the floors are going to be done immediately after, we are not going to put anything up....and will most likely actually start to move stuff down and out of the affected rooms. So next year we will get the house in the spirit.

We have also begun fixing the landscaping outside, but that is going to take us a bit, we need to move a little past the tiles and then the Holidays. We have an idea of what we want to do and have some of the materials so we can start but probably won't finish till after the new year.

So that seems to be about it for now. We hope this finds you each well.

Love and miss you all,
Ben and Gabrielle
