The floors and doors...sort of.

Paul installed hardwood floor for the first time - he did a great job. It was pretty intense. We love the lighter wood compared to the old dark pergo floors. And of course the doors - much better I must say!:->

Getting closer...

Alrighty, these are not perfect before and after pictures but it gives you an idea of how things are going at the "purple palace". I knew I was a delinquent when I saw Kathy Burns at my five year reunion and she said, "You need to update your blog!!" Thank you Kathy for keeping me on top o' things:->. The kitchen before (with a nice shot of our realtor) and the kitchen now - minus the counters and sink. Hopefully these will be added next week - I'm so excited! We also decided we don't like the dark blue in the kitchen so that will be fixed at some point. The fireplace before and the fireplace now. Sorry about the mess...just a glimpse of life at the "purple palace".
