Tile Project

Our awful dirty (thanks Lucy!) carpet before the tile was installed!
Floor prep was the hardest part....
We even had to break out the power tools!

Now the fun begins...

Laying the tile is complete!
Now we grout...
...and we grout...
...and we're finally finished!
This is the transition to the sunroom. The design was mine, but the green was Kassee's choice.

This was a really fun project, but properly cleaning the concrete of all the carpet glue and paint was the worst part - LOTS of elbow grease. Actually laying the tile was not too difficult, just takes a bit of OCD to get each joint straight and level =) I'd love to do this again someday!

Dollop of Ketchup


This is what happens when you give a one year old a "dollop" of ketchup to dip her chicken and peas (yes, her peas)...and then turn your back for a second to answer the phone.
