We had been tossing around the idea of resurfacing our hardwood floors. Anton had done it on the floors in our old house, and they turned out really well. This time around we decided to hire it done. That's a big deal around here. Anton is such a "do-it-yourself" kinda guy, that we very rarely hire things done. We had gone up to Midway and seen my parents new floors, and couldn't get over how beautiful they were so we asked for the number of the guy who did them, and we had him come and give us a bid. We were really surprised at how reasonable the bid came back, and so we went ahead and did it. Anton was out of town the week they did it, and so was my dad...so I spent a lot of time with my mom at her house. We were able to be home when the sanding was taking place, but had to be out as soon as they put the final coats on. Anton was getting home from Montana on Friday, and right when he got home, we headed up to Midway for the weekend...which was perfect because that's when they were going to be applying the stain. Both of us couldn't believe how much fun and relaxing it was in Midway. We became babies about going up there because it seemed like so much work for such a short weekend - but now that the girls are older, and we don't have as much "gear", the weekend was a dream. We went sledding at Soldier Hollow - and that was a BLAST! We all loved it. Anton also got to eat at his very favorite restaurant while we were there...which always makes him happy! We played games, watched movies, relaxed...it was such a great weekend. We can't wait to go back. When we got back home, we were really pleased with how the floors turned out! It is amazing how floors can change the look and feel of your house. Not many people would notice a difference because we went with a similar stain, but we can tell a huge difference in them. We are super happy we did it!
