New Floors

Before we could move into our house, we had to replace the floors. The previous owner had cats, and apparently they didn't believe in using a litterbox because there was a very bad smell in the house. We knew with the proper treatment of the problem, it would be fine. And, it gave us the opportunity to put in hardwood floors throughout the majority of the house. This is better for us because of Caden's health issues. We need to keep things are dust/allergen free as possible!


Luckily we have a friend who is a contractor and he was willing to bring his crew over to Walla Walla and take care of the job for us. We found a great deal on flooring materials at Home Depot and for the small areas we were going to put carpet, we found a great quality carpet at a local discount carpet store in Walla Walla.

While our friend and his crew worked on the floors, we were staying in a hotel in town. It made things slightly more complicated with feeding Caden and getting Kyler to/from school. But we knew it was temporary. It would be worth it in the end!

Here is the house with the original floors (carpet and laminate wood floors):



Here is the house in progress:



And, most importantly, here is the final product! We love it!  :)
