New Floors and Carpet in the Gardner House

After lots of discussion we finally decided to get new flooring upstairs and downstairs. However we waited and had it installed the week of Matt's 1st birthday party, needless to say I was a mess and so was my housed. But it is all clean now and looks great.

Laminate floors in the dining room
More dining room

Living room floors

More living room and the hallway

We then got new carpet on the steps and in the basement

We also added some pictures and Matt's letters to his room (it only took us a year)

Sports Basement

Well this past month has been a busy one for us. Brian and I have been working on our basement/family room. I painted some of the walls red and some of them white. Go Cardinals!! And Buckeyes!! Anyway, a few nights ago Brian and I finally decorated it with all of his sports stuff. I tried to take pictures from all angles, but it was tough. I did get some good ones. ENJOY!!

Our Beach Bathroom

Well things have been busy around the Gardner house. I have been working in the downstairs part of our house, painting and decorating. Our sports basement is almost done and below is our beach bathroom. I just love it. Check out our before and after pictures!!!

I hope you liked the miny tour of our house. The camera can't get every part of the house, so if you want to see more, you will have to come and visit. We welcome all visiters. Lots of love. Have a great week.
