Front room - check!
Kitchen - check!
check!
and re-check!
The only first floor areas not completed at this point are the bathroom and the front closet. The laundry room will get tiled. All our "real" 1st floor living space is done!So now the "putting back together" begins. Baseboards, touching up the beat-up walls, moving and removing furniture (Sarah and DZ -we need you!), the purchasing of area rugs (anyone have a Crate and Barrel discount??)
Holy smack, they are beautiful floors!!
So enough with the gorgeous floors already...
Here's my baby-love - at Jen's last weekend. I tell you, this kid really loves his books - and really, really loves other kids' books. This is the stack that accumulated on his lap after about an hour or two of thorough perusing. I love that all our kids love to read.

On another note...me, Margie, Tara, Lisa, mom, dad, Sarah and my kiddies went to spend some time with our relatives on the east side of town (ones that we don't see very often). Someday, I will devote an entire hour of blogging to the history on this side of our family. The Mexican/Navajo/Spanish side of the family - that is where my kids get their complexion ;)
An interesting FYI - my dad's dad used to ride with Poncho Villa. I have no idea what that entailed, but I assume it was riding around on horses in Mexico...I'll need to do a little research on this!
This is a photo of dad's parents and one of his sisters (Jessie, I think).
