New Carpet!

Last night we met with Empire Today and selected new carpet for our family room! It was an exciting event. They came out to our house and showed us all types of carpet samples. They have sample books they bring. There is a large piece of carpet on top and then when you lift the large carpet up there are several smaller samples underneath all of various colors.

Ryan and I felt each one carefully to determine which one felt the softest and most comfortable. When the salesman went outside to get some additional samples, Ryan suggested that I put my face on the carpet sample to feel how soft it was on face - or not soft. I complied and then suggested he did the same. The salesman came in as Ryan was lifting his face off the last carpet sample.

We continued talking and the salesman told us how he has to sanitize all the carpet samples after he is done for the day. He continued to explain how dogs sit on the carpet, cats roll on it. People put their babies on it... on and on he went. Ryan and I were just dying inside!! We had just rubbed our faces on that unsanitary carpet!!

When the guy went back outside we just about lost it! We were laughing so hard! We laughed and laughed and the poor sales guy had no idea what was going on.

Well, I guess the carpet wasn't that bad because we bought some... Being installed next Monday! Happy Thanksgiving to us!
