Prettying up the house!

Nathan and I decided this last friday to replace the old vinyl flooring in our kitchen and laundry room. So, off to Home Depot and Lowes we went to get all of the items we needed. By the time we were done it was about 6:00pm so we went and ate at Applebees. When we came back out to leave, our truck wouldn't start!! (Anyone who knows the ordeal we have had with this truck is taking pity on us right now). To make a long story short - Mom came to get us in her truck, we called a tow truck, and when the tow truck person got there he was able to start it right up - TWICE!
So, after unloading our stuff into moms truck we put it all back into our truck and went home!
Now about 10:00pm we are fitting the new flooring in the kitchen.
Here is what we did with all of the appliances as the floor was being demolished. (We also had to put the kitchen table in the bedroom hallway, our pantry in the bathroom, and Johns' toys in the computer room!)
This is the new flooring laid out and the old flooring on top for a comparison. Sara is very happy! (And tired, it's about 1:30am at this point).



The next day we were able to get all the appliances back and everything clean.
Not to shabby if I do say so myself!
