The time had come to accept our house smelling like dog urine, or getting rid of the carpets. We chose the latter. We thought we'd do the prep work before Labor Day weekend 2010, and we'd finish tiling our entire house, excepting the bedrooms, over the break. Completely unrealistic.

| To begin, as Mason was helping me move things out of the room, he sliced his hand on the back of the computer. We left for the ER immediately and he received the stitches as seen in the photo. |
It turned out that Home Depot didn't have enough of the tile that we wanted in stock. We were instructed to buy all of our tile at once so the color would be uniform. This was a huge blessing since Mason's hand was so sore. W decided to try and finish painting the room before our tile order arrived the next week.. I LOVE the green we chose. It makes the room a little darker, but I think it looks a lot better than my white. And yes, the kids have already added a touch of their own to it with crayon and vis-a-vis pens. I'll add more pictures as we finish the front room.
I want to thank Mason here right now for all his hard work. I tried to help him with the process, but for me, it was truly difficult. He had laid all the tile by himself, and he's almost done with the entire front room including the entryway. I'm blessed with such a hard working husband. Thanks, honey.
