Home improvements!!! :)

I know I've always stated that today will be the day I'll keep up with my blog... well obviously that's been false seeing that my last blog was in April. I have decided that since I'm not very good on keeping a personal journal that I'd just keep thing updated and posted here on my blog... isn't that what blogging is for?!?!?!

So much has happened in my family since April! :) This past summer Kepu has been going to summer school at UVU. This was his second semester of many to come and so far so good. We have realized that going to school full time in the summer isn't a very smart idea, seeing that all our family fun happens during this time and it would require him to miss school. I'm proud of him for getting through the semester and for wanting to go back in the fall! WAY TO GO BABE!!!

Once summer school ended for Kepu, we decided that we'd make some home renovations. On August 15th we decided we'd rip out the carpet and much to our surprise we found hard wood floors. And this is what we found....

I can't take any credit for doing anything, Kepu did it all while I was at work and watching the boys! :)

This is after the 1st round of sanding......

This is the 2nd round of sanding......

2nd coat of staining...

I thought it was too dark... so Kepu being the BEST HUSBAND ever re-sanded the entire floor and started from square one again! :)

The FINAL product!!!! .....

After finishing the floors... we (Kepu) just HAD to paint! :)

Kepu did an amazing job getting the front part of our house looking brand new! :) I absolutely love the way it looks! The pictures only show the front room, but when we decided to start all over on the front room we also decided to get KJ's room done as well. Our next home project is to finish the my bedroom and the kitchen.... that will begin the next school break ;)
