Our First Day!




So it is Monday May 8th and we are officially Home Owners. We got the keys at 10:30AM and it is time to get to work.














Before......














During......














After... Why would you want to cover these hardwood floors. They are in really good condition except for a 2x4 foot section that had the planks replaced. There is also an area that was not varnished for some reason. But otherwise it was in great shape, even better than the bedrooms hardwood floors. We are excited to see what can be done with them when we meet with the Floor guy tomorrow.












Here are a couple of pics of us hard at work taking out those staples and tack boards.


































It has been a long day moving things in, throwing things away, pulling up the carpet and staples, and still letting the thought of owning a new home sink in. By the end we both had blisters, scratches and a couple bruises, but ended the still with smiles and a nice soak in our new Spa.

It has been a good day with many more to come.
