So we have a majority of the painting done. We decided that we are going to install crown molding, so that’s why the wall isn’t painted all the way. We just ordered some samples to see what we might like. The floor was installed Friday & Saturday (most of it anyway, we were just short so the closet in the office isn’t finished). We got the switches and new switch plates installed (lights are supposed to be in this week). So I thought I would post a couple of pictures. It’s difficult to take pictures in our hallway, so it’s a little dark.

So last Friday we had a message on our answering machine warning us that there was a chicken in our yard. The message was absolutely hilarious…but anyway, by the time we got home there was no chicken. However, on Sunday the cats started going crazy and we looked out the window to find a chicken sitting on our fence. It jumped into the neighbor’s yard. We went over to the neighbor’s since they weren’t home to make sure they didn’t have a chicken floating in their pool and the chicken was chasing a cat through the yard. The whole thing was quite comical. So here’s a picture of our neighborhood chicken (we haven’t seen it since).
We also had a praying mantis…at least I think that’s what this is hanging out on the side of our house…doesn’t blend in so well on our white house!

The flooring looks great. Too bad you are short. Like the light switches. did you order those online?? Your neighborhood chicken is scary--just in time for Halloween. Yes it is a praying mantis so your father says.
Looking good!!
Love the chicken story!
We found the light switches at Lowe's. We did have to order the switch plates though.
Its looking good...I need to come visit so I can see all the changes in person :)
You definitely do!!
