We got SOOO much done this weekend.

Thank you Jason, Kurt and Aunt Mary for all of your help this weekend. For those of you who don’t know, Jason is Kerry’s cousin. Jason is an electrical genius- he has been rewiring houses since he was a little kid. He and his friend Kurt helped Kerry finish the electrcial work in our new bathroom – and they did a wonderful job.

If that wasn’t enough they decided to help us tear out the old carpet in our dining room – and then we moved onto the carpet in the living room. The carpet in the dining room needed to be replaced and we planned on turning the dining room into a play room for Lilly and the triplets. As for the living room Kerry wanted the carpet out because he wanted to use the hardwood floors beneath.

I cant say it enough- thank you guys so much.

After Jason, Kurt and Mary headed back (all the way to Cedarburg– thanks again )– Kerry went to work on the hardwood floors. We were going to just clean the floors off really good but Kerry decided to rent a floor sander. He mopped the floor- sanded it into the wee hours of the night- He also put in all of the baseboard trim and finished by staining/sealing the floor ! He did it all in one day/evening/ night! I woke up the next morning to beautiful hardwood floors.

The floors were all done on Saturday. Kerry went back to work on Sunday in the dining room. He sealed the floor in the dining room. Then he went and bought some carpet (without my approval- but it looks good !) – It was a big piece of carpet like 12 x 22 feet and he carried it up and in the house all by himself. And he installed it all by himself. Our former dining room is now a playroom for Lilly and the triplets. Its so nice to have a place to put the baby stuff we have been accumulating.

Thanks to everyone for your help ! We uploaded several pictures of this weekends projects. See all of the pictures here- Project Pictures
