little snafus

So, we've wanted to put wood flooring into our living room for a long time. Our carpet has some runs in it and doesn't look as nice as we would like, especially since we are going to try and sell the house in the spring.
It's been on our list of things to do soon for a while. Last week at play group I saw my friend Connie from the Highland Station ward and she said she was staying out of the house because they were having wood put up their stairs. I got the number of her guy and gave him a call and next thing you know we were ready to pull the trigger. DH and I went to lumber liquidators and picked some flooring and he started to rip up the old stuff (picture coming~I couldn't find it on our computer for some reason). We were happy that everything fell into place easily and it was going to be done a week and half after we decided to go for it.
Then the day DH was supposed to go to pick up the wood we found out it didn't make it on the truck. Now we have a sticky messy floor, all the furniture squished into other rooms and no floor.
Hopefully it will be in and furniture back and tree up before our family arrives for the holidays.
The kids however are loving all the open space and taking advantage by playing non-parentally sanctioned games in the living room.

And Lu and I have been trying to stay out of the house. Yesterday we went to the mall for playgroup.

Today we've been running errands trying to get stuff ready for the ward social.

Besides floor stuff we've had the usual play practice, karate, activity days, young women, dinner groups, and all the other normal getting ready for Christmas stuff.

That's Lucy on top of the train.

Today mom and I went to run our several errands and then she treated us to lunch at Central Market. They have a nice outdoor play area and tables on the patio and we sometimes like to go there. Lu always picks a fruit bowl for lunch. She did today too. I got warm and yummy carrot, leek and ginger soup. It was so tasty. Mom got cream of mushroom soup. We had a lot of fun sitting outside and eating and watching her play.
