Updating on the Home Front Part 2

I'm not dead, I swear. We've been busy though.

Removing carpet, removing paint from the floor, making 40 graduation invitations...more on that later.

So here's our hallway...taken from my room looking into our master bedroom. You can see that they had some sort of runner thing and the floor is worn, but that's ok with us. I don't want to cover it up. I think it's silly to have hardwoods and completely cover them. If you're gonna do that you might as well install carpet. I love the look of hardwoods, and I'm so happy we finally got rid of the carpet. We'll definitely have to refinish them, but that's for a later time.
(Can you see the OliverDog Butt? Isn't it cute? I'm hoping to get some video of him soon.)

Down the stairs. They are actually in worse shape than the rest of the floor..as far as we know. We haven't pulled up the carpet in our guest room, or in my room...why? well because there is furniture in those rooms...

Working on removing the paint from the floor...we taped the trim off (like they should have done in the first place...On the bright side, the paint comes right off. Jonathan is almost finished with our room..which is good because our new furniture comes on Saturday!!

It was pretty hot in the house this night. We don't turn on the air until July 4th...because I'm cheap. Shame on those of you who already have it on!
Chippy is not pleased with this arrangement.

It's too hot for him. Poor Chippy.

I've been busy in the studio. I've all but finished the 40 invites for my sister. All I need is the wording for the inside (hint hint!) Then I can be finished completely. It will be up to her to address the envelopes and such...the worst part.

I've got an Easter card completed that needs to be posted. I've got another card of top secret origin you can look forward to in the coming weeks. As soon as I'm done here I'm going to start on a wedding card for a friend of mine who is getting married in May. We can't attend the wedding because I have to work that weekend, I'm sad about that, but I'm still going to send her a card.

I'm working this weekend, but maybe I'll have some time to post the dishwasher (yay!) and our new bedroom furniture (double YAY!!)
