New Floors!

Yippee! Camp got some money to do new flooring in our apartment so it is out with the nasty old carpet and in with pretty oak-colored laminate! We are having some technical difficulties with the pictures, so for now you only get the "in process" ones, it will keep you coming back for more!
The first step was popping off all the trim so that we could lay the flooring under that...
Then it was time to tear up all the old carpet and other random flooring underneath it. We found particle board, linoleum, some other wood product stuff, tar paper, and then, this:
Yes, that is right, giant holes in the sub-flooring. After Brandon went to the hardware store to get replacement boards at 9 p.m. we called it a night! Then, finally, it was time to actually lay the floor! That didn't take too long, it was the prep work that was the real bugger.
More pictures of the finished product to come, I promise!
