Hardwood Floors - Take 2

We're getting closer!!  Since Brian has had some time off from the paint company he works for right now, he's really been attacking these floors. 
 I am so thankful to have such a handy hubby who works so hard!

Finishing up the sanding with the "edger."
The guest bedroom - BEFORE
Guest bedroom - AFTER
As you can see, we went with quite a dark wood stain.  We were hoping to hide the gross stains as much as possible.  The wood stain turned the fir into walnut!
Master bedroom - BEFORE
The bedroom floors turned out really sharp!

Living room and dining room - BEFORE
This is why you DO NOT let your pets use your carpet as a urinal!!  These stains just won't come out, short of replacing the boards.

Living room and dining room after - LOOKING GOO!

This weekend we'll apply the two sealer coats of "Glitsa", one coat top-coat, the floors will have to cure for about 48 hours and then WE CAN MOVE IN!!  
It's hard to believe we're finally this close to actually living in our house!
SO EXCITED!!
