Our flooring saga....

Cement and hardwood... the final outcome is soooo much better!


Well, as most of you know, we decided to get new flooring in our house since our carpet was on it's last leg between 2 adults, 2 kid's and a crazy dog. So we decided to splurge and get beautiful hardwood floors.... little did we know what we were getting into! The demo wasn't so bad, but it was the fact that after the demo and installing 1/3 of the wood that they figured out that the woods did not match and there was a manufacturing problem. To say the least I about fell over and had a hissy fit because I couldn't believe it! We had a representative from the manufacturer come to our home and look at it and even he couldn't believe it was wrong... we had about 7 planks in our house of the correct wood! GRRRRRRR!!! So to say the least we will never be doing anything else to this house because it's always toooooo crazy and there's always something wrong.. LOL! But in the end we were compensated since we had only a little hardwood and a whole lot of cement floors for about 3-4 weeks with two small kid's. Basically everyday we moved to a new house and came home to sleep. Thank you to my Mom and Brother Steve for letting us crash at your houses and for feeding us! We love you all! Our floors look amazing now, and though I was told I would forget about it, I haven't, but I love the floors anyways!
