Flooring

The carpet in the house is um, nice if you like that worn out look. We have been wanting to replace it and finally since we bought that massive bed, had the drive to do so. At first we were going to go through Lumber Liquidators. But then I thought about Costco and remembered last year they had laminate flooring for a great price. So we all went to check it out, and yep it's on sale until the 8th. We bought enough to do the boys room and Ashlyn's. Brian started Ashlyn's room that night and for never having done laminate flooring he did a great job, it took him around five hours. Now with the flooring done we could tackle the bed and get it ready for our little princess!
Also we will FINALLY put up the chair rail that we had planned on since we painted this room, oh almost 3 years ago!!!
 Not sure what is on my camera, Ashlyn has a habit of getting it and taking random pictures of the fan, the floor, our bed, the ceiling, and other fun and interesting things.

 Getting started on the floor. Love the little tykes table he is using for his tools ;)

 What progress! I had taken Ashlyn with me grocery shopping so I could get her out of daddy's hair.
 All done, just needs new base board, chair rail, and a new bed!
 We eventually want to replace the entire house, but our awesome tile will have to stay a little longer. It's funny most people think the tile is cool, or at least that is what they say, I HATE IT! Yes it hides dirt, but some times too well. It's a pain to clean!

Room Make Over

EQUALS A HUGE PAIN IN THE BUTT!!!
Ashlyn has been climbing her dresser and pretty much destroying her room when it's nap time. It wares on a person when you have to CONSTANTLY clean up after her. So I wanted to find a bed that was a loft style with a dresser in it. I looked at one, but Brian was not keen on it because there weren't really rails on top to make sure Ashlyn would not fall off. So I kept up the search. Last month we found a bed out in BUCKEYE...ugh. So we made an offer and went to get it. However the ad never said ANYTHING about not having directions on how to put said bed together. SERIOUSLY they told us they would e-mail us some, never happened. Also the bed was already unassembled so we could not even see how it went together. All we had was the picture from the original ad. NEVER AGAIN!!! Also there was a LOT of wear and tear more than I had expected once put together. This bed is massive and so we thought let's not put it into Ashlyn's room right away, but lets replace her flooring first! Details in next post about that!

Bedding in the trailer, under the carport, sitting and waiting to get worked on.
These are the two dresser, 8 small drawers. I didn't try them out but had I, I probably would have walked away. :(
 The drawers.
 Doors for the little hide out area behind the bed. 
 This is the desk area. 
 Side panels.
It also came with a trundle twin, the top bunk is a full. There were also stickers all over the wood.
