It's OK to Swear in French, Right?

Since Marshall spilled a bottle of bleach on the hall carpet, we've wanted to re-tile the entry way and include the hallway as well. Heck, we were going to rip up the wood floors in the kitchen and put down the same tile. I was kind of tired of the old tile anyway. We looked at several tile places and finally decided Home Depot had the color we liked the best...not to mention the price. So I scheduled a full week of vacation.

Then Mallory slipped.

I had just mopped the entry way and she went running across the tile....and fell flat on her face. Her lip gushed blood for several minutes. It also cut her gum line straight across her two missing front teeth that had yet to break through the gum line. They have since broken through and appear sort of jagged...chipped from the fall.

GRRRRRR.

We didn't think it was a coincidence, so we decided to only re-tile the entry way and NOT do the hall. Or the kitchen. Whew. After all, how many times do your kids run from the bathtub into their bedrooms with wet feet? Mine do it every single day so we were foreseeing many disasters with a tiled hallway.

Here's the before/after pics:

I can be hired. For cheap.
