I am so proud of them! There are plenty of imperfections, but it all leads to greater character (or that is what I am going with).
As you can see from this hallway shot, we decided to completely ignore the spare bedroom. That
is going to have to be a whole other project. The floor is in great shape in there, so it shouldn't be as hard as the living room (no linoleum!).

The whole project cost $251.31, which includes dump fees for the old carpet, safety supplies, paint remover, sander rental, TONS of sand paper, polyurethane, and painting supplies. I can't even imagine how much it would have cost if we would have paid someone to do it, so I am pretty happy with us. :) I hadn't really done a project like this before, so I learned sooooo much, and had a sore back for multiple days in a row! It was so good for me, and I think Jered had fun too.
There is still a ton of stuff to do, but one project is off the list......bring it on!!
