It's Like Buying a New House!

Yesterday we got NEW CARPET in the living room. If you know me IRL and talk to me fairly often, you probably know how much I loathed the crappy carpet in the living room. {and the rest of the house} When we moved in we knew the whole house needed new carpet soon but who has that kind of money laying around so we have been putting it off. But the living room has taken a beating, thanks mostly to Cooper who Chris wants to give to the Gypsy's to take away. I told Cooper if he so much as thinks about having an accident on the new carpet, he is being shipped off to the glue factory. {You think I'm kidding...ok we would probably try and find him a nice family, whatever}

Here is the process, this may not be a big deal to anyone else but I have been waiting and waiting for this day!!! I feel like my house is so much cleaner and nicer now!!! YAY!


BEFORE-
Be glad this is poor quality, it was so dirty and it showed because the carpet was so light.


after the carpet was up


AFTER


and just for fun, this is Lola having an impromptu sprinkler sesh on Sunday, hence the diaper. She loves to play with PawPaw.

This one is because she is just too cute to not put more pictures up!

  2. Jealous!!! I want new carpet too! That is probably the only part about have a dog that I LOATHE! We've only been in our house 5 years, and the family room carpet is in serious need of replacing! Yours looks great, I love that carpet!

  3. I know what you mean. That was my biggest fear when we first bought our house, NEW, new house. Brand new carpet with an untrained dog. However, the only reason she must have been untrained was the nasty carpet at our town house because since then she has been very well behaved in that department. I'm jealous. I want new carpet! I love the feeling of "new"
