A Busy Week

The lonely bedroom floors... not pretty!
Patching the holes and other prep work.
First pass with the sander... much better already.
Second pass... almost done!
Third and final pass!
That was so much more work than I remember! 
Time to clean up and get to the next step...
Let's learn from our mistakes and cover all of the windows!
Next we clean up with the mineral spirits...
The next thing is color!  The oak soaked up the
stain beautifully!
Last for the floors... make it sparkle!
With all of the humidity and heat, this took a
bit longer than usual.  I still think it was totally worth it!
The transformation wouldn't be complete without
a fresh coat of paint on the walls.  Rebecca loves
color, so I will let her help me pick it out!
