Kitchen and Dining Room Remodel

We are on a Remodel Roll at our house...

We got our tax return at the end of February.  At the beginning of March we set out to find some wood flooring that we liked and that wouldn't break the bank.  We ended up at Lumber Liquidators and found the perfect flooring that was only $1.29 Square Foot.  It is a discontinued flooring, but that's okay.  We ordered 270 Square feet hoping our math was correct and we would have enough.

The wood came in on Friday the 13th of March, so we went to pick it up and started our demolition.  On Saturday, we started laying the wood at about 1 pm and stapling it into the floor.  Thanks for the help Chuck and Glen we finally finished the kitchen at around 9pm Saturday night.  On Sunday we started in the dining room.  It went a lot faster in the dining room and we were done with it about 7pm on Sunday.  Then we had to put everything back and clean up.

I am so proud of us for doing this.  We did it all on our own with a little bit of help and we did it all in one weekend with 3 crazy boys to entertain.  At the beginning of the year, I told Mike that I was sick and tired of moping my kitchen floor because it didn't ever get clean.  So we made the plan to update our floor, and we stuck with in and did it.  And it only cost us about $600.  I love my floor now!
