We have our new floors installed thanks to our friends' hard work. Friday night we had 10 people helping with the prep work of taking off molding, ripping out carpet, scraping the linoleum, etc. The kids even helped pull up staples and move boxes. Saturday morning we started off with a big breakfast of eggs, sausage, fruit, pastries, coffee, etc. so that our workers would have plenty of energy for the day. We continued to feed them throughout the day so that they didn't dare leave. I even baked our friend's favorite cookies so that the smell of the house would keep him happy :) We would have finished at 10:00 on Saturday night, but we were 4 boards short.... We took an early morning trip to IKEA on Sunday morning to buy 1 more box. I think Peter planned it that way so that he could buy an IKEA cinnamon roll (he loves them). We feel so blessed to have such amazing friends who would give up 18 hours of their weekend to help us!
