I'm sitting here at the Toyota dealership waiting for my oil to be changed, and figured it was a good time to (finally) update the blog :)
No recent updates, because things have been at a bit of a stand still while the floors were being refinished. The smell is finally going away, and thanks to some 70 degree days (yup, and it was in the negatives last week) Tony has been able to keep the windows and doors open to air out the house a bit. The floors are beautiful and they did a really excellent job on them. The color is exactly what Tony wanted, and even though he was a little apprehensive about spending so much money redoing floors that were in good shape, I think he doesn't regret it at all. It makes everything look more updated and more uniform (there were a few different colors of hardwoods before they were refinished).
Unfortunately, I haven't been at the house during daylight since the floors were refinished...lots of very long work days and photo-shoots. So, I haven't had time to get any good pictures of the floors, so all I have are a couple of quick iPhone pictures I snapped that will have to do for now.
Here are the kitchen floors before:
And after... (again...terrible quality iPhone picture with poor lighting)

Den before and after:
The rest are just a few random pictures of the floors from my iPhone...

Maybe I will have some free time soon and will be able to take some better pictures that are more true to color :)
