Carpet Install

We knew that getting new carpet was going to be essential when we moved into our house. The old carpets were stained and filthy.... and they were old. We couldn't move anything into the bedrooms until new carpet was put in so after the walls were painted we called to have an estimate done.

We wanted to make sure that we got good, durable carpet. One that can handle having cats (and later kids) and possibly stains. Having the best meant spending a little more but we're happy with the results. The carpet we settled on is highly stain resistant (we've already had a cat barf incident) and we are very happy with the look. We chose the color Sweet Cream (why is this stuff always named after food?) and it's super squishy to walk on. As you can tell from the picture I've posted below... Thomas likes it :) His sister even commented that it looked like a Febreeze advertisement!!! Ha ha!
We didn't replace the carpet in the living room because when the old tile gets replaced we figured we would just use tile (or laminate) in that room as well to give it a continuous look throughout the house. Plus, in Phoenix, carpeted living rooms are very rare. So we'll have to live with the old dirty carpet in there for a bit longer :(

Once the carpeting was in we could start moving things into the bedrooms!
