New doos & new floors (not related, just new stuff)

We decided that George "W" was going to buy us a new floor for the kitchen & hallway....so thanks for the tax relief check! We really hated the carpeting in the hallway because it was absolutely filthy despite our best efforts to not wear shoes in the house. So we decided on laminate and had the kitchen done as well, since it would've looked really silly if we hadn't done it. We went with Floor & Decor & were really pleased with their prices & the work they did. So here are some pictures of what it looks like finished. From the front door following the hallway/walkway around towards the downstairs bathroom, laundry room & garage. Right about where Frodo (our ceramic frog & family pet) is was where the carpeting began & followed all the way around to the left.
From the front door looking left into the kitchen (you can SORT OF see the girls hair cuts...I'll post more when I get a couple good ones. Click the picture to enlarge & see them better).



And from the living room looking towards the front door & kitchen.
So far, we're loving it!!!

Super delite! Thats also what Dad and I chose in our home in Colorado. I just run the dust mop on the floor every morning, then vacuum up the residue on the mop and along the baseboards. Twice a week I mop with a wet mop that has special laminate floor cleaner sprayed on it, then let it air dry. It shines like new!
