Thursday September 22

Tomorrow is the big day!
Or at least we hope so.......
Things are moving along and everything seems to be in order.
We will see.
We are putting some new carpet down in the basement at the new place.
Upstairs is all hardwood, except the hallway, which we are replacing too.
Brent got an amazing deal on the carpet.
He has a way of doing that sort of thing.
We were getting the absolute cheapest carpet we could fine.....at $0.74 a square foot.
Well, they did not have in stock as much as we needed.
He somehow got the guy to give him the other carpet that was 15 feet wide for the price of the cheap stuff.
And this one is much better.
When they went to cut the carpet, there was only about 7 extra feet on it.
They guy said he was just gonna add it in with the rest, cause he couldn't sell just that size.
Then he had a 10% coupon off to use at Lowes.
So we got a KILLER deal on this carpet!!!
YAY!
We just took the old stuff out, and layed it on the good stuff to cut the shape out.
It was some very heavy stuff...but we did it.
It lays in there quite nicely.
We will need to rent a stretcher to stretch it out.....and then add some floor boards....nice paint on the wall.
I think it will look pretty nice.
And of course the boys had to do some wrestling.....


I think these pictures are hilarious!!!!
Love my boys!
*****
We got back to our soon to be old home.....
We had some dinner......then we decided to harvest some of our stuff from our garden before we move out.


The girls had fun pulling sunflower seeds out of our giant sunflowers.



 And I planted pumpkins this year cause I HATE spending so much money for pumpkins!
So I decided to take some for myself.
There is still plenty out there for the new home owners.
They all turned out so perfectly!
