My “new” house

Remember my post about our new ducky bathroom?  Well the insanity didn’t stop there!  I was determined to finish any projects before school and reality started again.  I decided to finish painting my living room.  Also I had mentioned to Jeremy how sick my dining room floor was and how it might be nice to someday rip it out and put in hardwood-ish floor.  So when I started painting our living room, he felt inspired and started tearing up floor.

After 7 years of kids spilling on dining room carpet 3 to 95 times a day, our light colored carpet was just disgusting.  No amount of carpet cleaning would make the stains go all the way away or stay gone.

So I give you our before shots….

(I actually paid full-price for that can of dark brown paint.  It hurt a little, not gonna lie, but it was fun to pick out a color from the little cards and match it up exactly to what I wanted)DSCN4286DSCN4287

I feel like I have a whole new house!  I love it!  And Jeremy did such an amazing job on the pergo flooring.  Did I mention I love it??
