What, you don't have carpet on your patio?

This lovely pile of carpet and padding is on our back patio. Nice isn't it? It looks almost as good as the cement that goes from our doorway to the eating area. The good news is that the kids can color on the floor, ride their roller blades, and do whatever else they want. Shortly, the entry way, hallway, eating are and kitchen will be sporting some fabulous travertine. In order to do this project, the kids and I are are going to so. Cal so rick can get it done. He's going to be pulling out the applicances and everything making the kitchen area extremely unusable. Lucky for us, nana doesn't mind if we crash with them for awhile. Should be fun! Til then, I just get funny looks when I open the door and people notice there's cement instead of carpet or tile or something...
