Who knew one could appreciate something as simple as carpet?! After the recent flooding I'm sure many people would agree. Thankfully we didn't have any damages to fix, we just wanted to make what we already had better.
One of the first things we decided to renovate in our new house was the floor in the family room. It was hardwood. We wanted carpet. I know, *gasp*! Covering up hardwood floors?! Many of the "older people" in our lives have shuddered at the thought, but we knew right away that having kids means a lot of time spent on the floor for everyone so we couldn't wait to make it a soft, cozy place.

Notice the wall color change as well...how can you not! There is still work to be done to the fireplace, draperies, tv stand, etc. but one thing at a time right?! (Instead of "Where's Waldo", "Where's the cute little naked munchkin???")

Aww, so soft!
See what I mean? There is lots of future fun to be had on the floor!
