Corey and Mom's Condo Part 2 - Carpet

Wednesday was dedicated to moving all of the furniture into the garage and taking up the carpet, padding, dirt and nails. This included the front room, the master bedroom, and the other bedroom. Jason and Ben took on the moving by themselves. I knew they were pretty strong, but I didn't realize how strong they were until that Wednesday.

I only got a picture of the first thing they moved. The master bedroom furniture and the T.V. made this furniture look light.

Furniture is cleared, so it was time to take out the carpet. Exciting!

Carpet is much heavier than I thought. I only helped take out the padding, being pregnant and all. Mom made sure I didn't do anything too strenuous and helped the boys a lot.

Troy was quite the helper. Anything he saw Ben do, he would copy. Even taking out staples or nails. Don't worry, the blade on the tool broke off because Ben was a little too strong.

It took all of Wednesday to get everything done. Corey and Mom stayed up with us to finish cleaning up all of the dirt and padding.

The following day, Thursday, was carpet installation day! Hurray for professionals doing the work! I thought we would go relax, but Ben wanted to finish up caulking the bathrooms. I think Ben is secretly the energizer bunny. So Troy and I went to Target to get his wiggles out.

Here is Maddy's room with the new carpet!

The rest of the boys and their wives came that night to help put all of the furniture back and spend the night. Here they are just after finishing their hard work. Alan didn't want to sit on the couch because the carpet was so nice! All of us have enjoyed the carpet so much!
