New Hardwood Floors: Part 1

Since Tal and I moved into our house 5 years ago, we have lived with dirty, stained, outdated tile and carpet that is 15 years old. Honestly, our carpet has so many stains that Tal and I are embarrassed to have guests at our house:

The good news is that we will FINALLY have hardwood floors throughout the remainder of our first floor. (We already have hardwoods in our hallway, formal dining room, and home gym. We are keeping the tile in in master bath, half bath, and laundry room for now.)

Over the next 1.5-2 weeks, Tal and Uncle Kenny will be installing hardwood floors in our kitchen, living room, and master bedroom:

Kitchen Eating Area

Today Tal started demo! He worked his tail off and ripped out the tile in the kitchen and eating area:

Over the next few days, we will be ripping out the carpet in the living room and master bedroom, 

so Tal can start laying hardwoods (hopefully) this weekend:

We are looking forward to having updated flooring on our first floor!
