Crossing the Finish Line

Yesterday was a mad crazy day filled with busyness and excitement. The carpet installer came at 9am and finished around 10:30, while the contractors were then working on the electrical in the dining room and the siding outside. When the carpet was done and the room was tarped, the contractors moved back into the room and finished all of the electrical. Today there are more little things to be finished up and the new windows will be installed in the front toy room. Basically the house is covered completely in drop clothes and it looks pretty comical.
While I was at work late doing parent-teacher conferences my hubs worked his butt off vacuuming and moving in some of the furniture. I came home to a beautiful new room and feeling much less stressed.
Many special thanks go out to people who helped us get through yesterday...
Thank you to my Mom and Justin for picking Seth up at Pat's and entertaining him until Ro could get out of work.
Thank you to Bonnie for coming over last night and keeping an eye on Seth while Ro moved in furniture and cleaned.
Thank you to Lewis for helping Ro lift that heavy heavy furniture!
We appreciate all of your help so much!
We will be cleaning and shopping for lamps and end tables tonight, pics to come!
