New Carpet

We finally got new carpet!  When I bought this house 5 years ago the upstairs carpet was already on it's last leg.  We finally put new carpet in.   So now we have a nice, soft place to walk.

It was very flat carpet.

There was no softness left to this carpet.  We moved the bed a year and a half ago and you can still see the indentation from the risers.

Isaac says you make carpet angels on new carpet, so here he is demonstrating. 

You can see the vacuum marks now.  Before, when we would vacuum it was more like vacuuming a commercial style carpet; falt and not fluffy.

Now we just have to find the time and energy to put everything back.  Haha, I'm just going to twitch my nose and it will be done, yes?  

The final touches

A few weeks ago we finally got around to putting flowers in the flower box we constructed.  They are so inviting when we pull in to the driveway.

And the grass that we planted even grew.  That is until we had three weeks of 100+ weather without much rain.  So we shall see how it all survives the summer.  But it is so nice for now.
