Cabinets & Flooring here we come

So all of the major construction is done. Kent & Erik went and picked up the cabinets last Saturday. It's amazing how I just happened to be out of town when the cabinets arrived :)

The cabinets are stored in the garage, the front porch and some in the house. For as big of house as we have it seems like we are running out of room to put things!

So before we could get the flooring installed we had to finish up removing the old floor. What a lot of work.

It seemed like there was no end to the old flooring. Also the bowl in the background is where a valve was bad and leaking all over. Kent had to get that fixed BEFORE the flooring was put in.

Just when we thought we were almost done getting the flooring ready we realized we had our all parquet flooring in the entry hall. It took Kent a full days work to get this up and all of the glue scraped off.


Finally we put new plywood down every where to make the floors ready for the Hardwoods. Kent worked so hard on this!

By Sunday night we were ready to go. The flooring was level (well as level as it can get) and I swept up and picked up all of the tools.

Monday morning Jasmin started installing the floors and they are beautiful! I just luv to look at them. He hopes to finish on Tuesday or maybe Wednesday morning.
