Things New Part Two

This weekend started like any other: lazy Saturday morning, coffee cake, coffee, trip to some home improvement store... Then we got home and went CA-RAZY! Mike got his landscape on and put in some edging around this flower bed. We have NEVER had anything here, so it's really nice to have some boundaries for the flowers this year! Here he is hard at work! Isn't he cute?!?
I planted the flowers that he got for me after I finished an inside project. Don't they look great?



Here is the inside project. Our dining room chairs are damaging our floors, so we decided to get a carpet for that room to start that room remodel. Here are the floors after I cleaned them like they have only been cleaned twice since moving in: (yeah- it's worthy of taking a picture!)
Here is our new rug:
Also- new rule: if you visit the site, comment!!!!! It makes me want to keep documenting our home remodel!
