Tim the Tool-Time-Hammer MONTH is OVER!!!

Kyle and I could not be more thrilled with how our office turned out. The past couple weeks we have been doing the final touches on the room, and we finished it tonight! We decided to hire a guy to install our carpet and our hard wood floors, and so he came yesterday and today and finished those. It took him forever and it was a frustrating process because he was always late, but in the end his work was very precise and exactly what we wanted. We ended up getting a super sweet deal on the hardwoods from a special order that got canceled with Home Depot, instead of it being $4.75 a square foot, we got it for $1.25 a square foot... almost the same price as our carpet! We put hardwoods in the foyer area when you first come into the garage since that is a high traffic area and our carpet there just kept staining. We also got all the doors painted and hung, baseboard in the closet, shelf in the closet and a lot of other little things done in the office. Yesterday we worked on the garage getting all the shelves painted and the new wall painted. Okay so enough talking, here are all the pictures!!
Our new hardwoods!
All the shelving with the closet & doors view out to foyer:
Got the can lights up and running with the dimmer switch.. nice!
Shelf inside closet & our new carpet!
Wooden threshold between carpet and hardwoods:
Our new painted shelves in the garage. Kyle is just starting to put stuff on them!
And that's a wrap. Kyle and I are thankful that Tim the Tool-Time-Hammer MONTH is over as we are pretty tired, but excited to have such a nice addition to our house! We are definitely looking forward to a nice relaxing weekend in Chattanooga, TN for our 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!
