Flooring

Uh! Don't you just hate it when 2 dogs, a cat and an alligator pee on the carpet in your living room? 

Well we do. 

So we finally replaced our downstairs carpet with wood floors. 

It was a ton of work but so worth it. We went with a dark bamboo since it's the hardest material we could afford. It took us a few weeks but it's finally complete and we couldn't be happier with the result. (or the lack of urine smell!)




We have been updating a few of the other rooms as well. Our bedroom went from being cramped and all turquoise to a nice light brown and green room.
Then of course when Sam turned 3 we had to upgrade him to a new bed and layout in his "big boy" room. He requested a giraffe theme, and we agreed. 
 His room is so long and skinny that it was really difficult to find a way to fit all his things in there. We did what we could with the small space.


We have a ton more projects we are planning on tackling very soon. First to come is our entry way where we tore out a closet and some walls to install a nice stair banister. We also hope to add some much needed lighting and a new deck. Its nice having a handy husband around :)

I love this, Holly! ALL OF IT! I ESPECIALLY love the giraffe decal (stencil?) in Sam's room. And the floors look GREAT!

Not only does that look incredible, but I'm pretty amazed that an alligator managed to pee on your floor. That's a bit outside of their natural range.
