Bye Bye Flooring

Who would have thought flooring would be so though. When we built our house we picked out an inexpensive flooring due to the fact that our children were small. Well talk about great flooring, it did not want to leave. We finally got it up and out.

Camo Man had to peel the top layer off before using the machine.

Then we had to literally pull the machine to remove the composit part. Yes, that is my nephew. I think he wants to be a Blog Star. Is there anything this boy can't do. You might remember him adding the molding to my sisters dining area. http://susieharris.blogspot.com/
**Tip for this post, If you are in doubt about a paint color and your husband will only paint every six years, CALL a professional** We will be painting the kitchen with this make over. Yes, the gold and blue are gonna go.

This is my son with a broom, he on the other hand does not want to be a Blog Star and refused to let me take his picture. So I snapped this one fast.
We are moving right along. Next will be ceramic tile... Not real crazy about putting it in my foyer but Camo Man loves it, so what the heck. He did agree to letting me put a rooster in the back splash behind the stove. For you newly weds , this is called compromise. It takes time to learn this skill, but it will be to your advantage.

Too funny! I love how stubborn your cheap floor was! Even more I love the "compromise" part! Isn't it the truth!? I can't wait to see how this turns out.
