Hardwood Flooring Part Deux


So last weekend was all hardwood flooring all the time! Mom and Mike arrived Friday night and Mike and Adam did some last minute insulating laminent gluing. Saturday morning bright and early they starting flooring instulation while Mom and I ran some errands and worked on stuff around the condo. By Saturday afternoon Sarah was manning the saw and Mom, Mike and Adam were all measuring pieces and laying flooring to finish the living room and dining room so that we could go to Eamonn's for dinner. Fish and Chips were housed and we got to see Anthony Bourdain taping his show No Reservations on the Travel Channel! AWESOME!! We finished the night with Pop's ice cream (the cheesecake ice cream was amazing).


Sunday morning started early again with the men laying floors in the kitchen and the women putting the rest of the house back together, ironing, gardening and helping when needed on the floor. The whole thing was finished around 10:30, we ate some Valentino's pizza and then Mom and Mike drove home while we stayed up doing some more cleaning. Huge thanks to Mom and Mike! We could not have done it without you!

We have no in action flooring shots because we thought we had lost the charger only to have Adam find it on Monday (I know, I can't believe it either) in one of my messy drawers (my mother taught me better than that...at least my closet is clean now :) ). Here are some shots of the newly installed floors and a picture of us at Eamonn's courtesy of resident photog Colleen. The fuzzy picture Adam took of Anthony Bourdain will not be posted because Adam had to trade in his malfunctioning phone before he remembered to transfer the picture to the computer :(



I like how sable made her way into all of the photos :)
