chaos...

Well, my house has been in chaos for the last couple of weeks, but for good reason. Gilles has been installing new laminate flooring, and it looks amazing. He just finished the last of it last night, and I am amazed at how much better it looks than the old floor. We also picked a darker color so that the dirt won't show up so quickly...ha ha ha. Next, Gilles will replace the counters and the sink in the kitchen...ooooh...I will finally have a stainless steel sink!

Renovations en masse!!!

So we're in the process of doing renovations to the house in case we have to sell, but we're also choosing things that meet with our tastes in case we don't have to sell. So far we have replaced the broken toilet in the laundry room, and Gilles is in the process of replacing the laminate flooring in the boys' rooms. We have also ordered new counters for the kitchen due to the fact that somebody tried to set the counter on fire when she was pregnant with her second son (we won't mention any names here...LOL). We've bought a nice stainless steel sink and faucets to replace the white plastic sink we have that stains so horribly. Then the next big project will be the floors from the hallway to the rec room (that also includes kitchen, dining, and living rooms.)

Oh, I would love to have a bigger house, but not if it would mean I'd have to settle for a smaller back yard.
