The Remodeling Journals: Seven Layers of Floor Make One Long Project
We got to finally get some more work done on our house – the kitchen floor!

The tile was this really old tile that look like an orange topographic map. Today we will start laying down some tile. We also installed an electric doggie fence that is doing a great job keep our puppy from escaping!
