ta-daa....finally...our garden door..with trim!
so it was a friday, a bad day at work for both of us, we meet in town for supper, i am on my way home, curtis calls and the new garden door we bought, has been caught by the wind and flew out of the back of the truck! then we get home to this mess, furniture everywhere, not set up and a wrecked floor! GOOD DAY? nope, not at all....one to remember!
the living room, coming together... at least we didn't have to put the couches, etc together!



the deep, long scrape in our new floor!



mom and dad came in may, dad and curt put in our new garden door.... the second one!!!


even murphy got to help! isn't he just the cutest thing!?!

the entrance/part of kitchen and dining room, AFTER getting painted...
the finished pantry (there used to be a closet there - closet is now around the
corner -to the left - and laundry room moved downstairs)

the kitchen, getting closer to being done (need microwave in, new window, and hardwood)

more of the kitchen...



buffet and hutch and dining room set, delivered by the BRICK and just left there, as they were told to leave, left their boots on and wrecked our new hardwood!
