Flooring and kitchen updating
We embarked on the task of tearing out all of our dirty white carpet downstairs, up the stairs, and in hallway upstairs.
Then we started pulling up tile...however, this thin set was stuck extremely well and it was a long process to scrape away all the thin set to get down to cement floors.
We are absolutely loving our vinyl plank wood flooring. It snaps in super easy and quick
Requires cutting, Caleb taught both kids to measure and cut the boards
Everyone is helping lay the flooring
We are also having the entire downstairs and upstairs hallway painted...we chose Wordly Gray
Previous banister...oak
...
Now all the banisters are black
New walls painted gray
I updated our chandelier by adding clear glass globes
...
Now for the kitchen
...
Caleb took off doors above hood
And framed it out
Really updated hood.
The kitchen cabinets will be painted white!
Coming soon.

Junior Olympics
Mason qualified for the Junior Olympics in 50 Breast stroke and in 2 relay races. One to swim 50 Breast stroke and one to swim 50 Freestyle.
The team got to tie-dye their swim shirts.
And they had a special practice and then served them breakfast.
This girl is ready to compete
Swim Now
Breathe Later
2018 Summer Junior Olympic Team
...
Swimming with new friend Rayna
Oldest Haushalter cousin Eli also swimming in Junior Olympics
They both raced on the same day.
She started off strong and super fast and was way ahead of everyone....
then about 75% way through her body completely stopped and she couldn't breathe. (Now we truly understand her shirt that says swim now and breathe later..haha).
The next picture is where she slowly came in and finished her race.
She had a ~ 10 minute break and then had to get back in and do another 50 Breast stroke for her relay team.
She was fearful it would happen again, but she was fierce and a competitor and went for it!
She swam great!!!
Her team swam great and won 3rd place!
With her new friends and relay teammates
Kiera, Bella, Mason and Rayna
They even received medals...on the podium!

Paul, Eli and Noah were staying with us since Eli was swimming also.
The kids loved swim time in our pool with Noah
