I am so excited about my new hardwood floors that I just felt the need to inundate my f-list with pics. (((((hugs)))) to f-list for putting up with me! My house feels like a new house and it is amazing how much these floors seem to open up the space and make all my old furniture feel new as well.

My living room where I hang out in the evenings tuned in to whatever tickles my fancy at the moment.
Moving onto the entry...

My Mom who has no idea that her pic will be posted on the internet..tee hee hee
Heading back around the space....

SUCH GORGEOUSNESS!

Just be prepared for the attack of the dustbunnies. But wood floors are worth it!

Yes, I can already see that I'm going to be sweeping quite a bit. It's still worth it!

That's a gorgeous shade! Do you happen to recall what it is?

As for their maintenance? The best thing I ever did was buy a Hoover FloorMate. SO much easier.

No, I can't remember. I'll check one of the boxes and get back to you (surely the shade is listed on the box)

Yes, I wonder how long they will stay that-a-way

Shiny! And having lived with hardwood floors for a while now, I can assure you that you are going to love them. So much easier to keep clean than carpet.

I also noticed you have a Rainbow. We just got one ourselves. I liked the aspect about it cleaning the air as well as serving as an actual cleaning system - and one that works on hardwood floors much better than dragging out my old Kirby with the non-carpet attachments. But the real clincher that sold me? Well, during the home demo when the guy pulled it out I had a mild fit of giggles as I realized it looked like a droid one would find in Star Wars. ; )

LOL! It does look like a droid!! I love the Rainbow but it can be a pain in the butt to set up and put away, what with the water and all. I do like the air cleaning, which is how I was using it in the pic.

I do, too! I would actually post more pics but it can be so time consuming and whatnot. I never did post the home office painting I undertook a while back. Brandon's room is going to go through a redo in the very near future. He has chosen Electric Lime as a paint color and some rather retro wall decals. I'll hopefully post pics of that when we get it all done.
