At Last

I left you hanging yesterday about the carpets. You probably guessed from my Davis blog that illness has temporarily taken over our lives. The good news in the midst of it all is that the long-awaited renovations are finally done. The carpet installers arrived yesterday at 7:55am as promised, and in less than two hours had fitted and installed our new carpets. Our home looks amazing and practically brand new with its magnolia walls and sandy carpet. Here are the before and after pictures as promised.

The treacherously worn and slippery carpeting on the stairwell. We've had several falls as a result.

Danger no more. The stairs creak less, have better traction, and look a million times better.

The famous "Davis spot". The stain was already there before he was born, by the way, and had been cleaned multiple times since the blessed event to no visible avail.

Now marked only by memories.

Well-worn and dirty path in the hallway.

Almost too pretty to walk on.
