Before and After

This is our family room.



See the beautiful "jungle floor" colored carpet? We believe it's been in the house since it was built in the 70's. You can see where the carpet is darker as it was under furniture and the lighter walking paths that don't even have much carpet fiber left.


Here's what it looks like now! We have been wanting to get new, clean (sanitary) carpet since we moved in and after much agonizing deliberation we finally decided on some carpet from an outlet store. It's so nice to have something soft to stretch out on and lay Eliad on.


Or, as was the case Monday, to "swim" on. Of course, after having the 5 of us cooped up in about 100sf of walking path through the kitchen and dining room for 7.5 hours, we were so relieved to spread out that we could have danced a jig on it!



Seconds after getting the last of the carpet scraps inside it did this!


Hail in February! This is the first time we've been able to have both cars in a garage for a hail storm and it was sure nice not to have to worry about any damage to them!

The weather's been crazy this winter that's for sure, today we had the house opened up and the kids ran around outside. I definitely prefer weather like today!
