Crazy Week and a Half






A lot has happened since our last post.  Monday we moved all our furniture into the laundry room, kitchen, bathrooms, and front porch in preparation of refinishing our wood floors.  Kevin rented a sander and we got to work.  Just like everything else that was built 50 years ago our old varnish was meant to last forever.  It took about the whole day to sand the varnish up with coarse sand paper and then a fine sand paper.  Over the next few days we cleaned the floors and laid the new varnish.  The kids did great bouncing from one house to the next while we stayed with friends and they even pitched in and helped every now and then.  After a WEEK of being homeless we are back in our house.  Jared lost a tooth tonight and I thought I'd put up this picture.

Good Job! When my parents re-did their floor it was a nightmare so I feel your pain!
