Our "new" downstairs

Wow!  I haven't been blogging for a while.  We have been extremely busy working on our living and dining rooms.   Ed put in new flooring and we painted everything including the dining room paneling.  Eventually, we will get new living room curtains.  It's like we live in a new house.   Ed still has some work to do on the living room but here are a few pictures.

The table is now back in the middle of the dining room and someone gave me a glider which I put where the table is in the picture.
The picture below will give you an idea of what it looked like before:

How awesome it is to walk downstairs in the morning or come in from the outside and see such beautiful rooms!
