Now you must think that my life is really boring, as I am even blogging about our carpets being cleaned, but let me tell you that in our house, this is quite an occassion. Amanda even woke Rachel up in anticipation shouting "Rachel, wake up, the carpet cleaner is coming today...let's make the bed...quickly!". After a year of living here, with many social gatherings and a lot of cooldrink and hot chocolate and other things spilled on the carpets, sometimes by our guests, sometimes by us, but mostly by Sugar (our playful cat) I thought it was high time that the carpets got a proper clean.

The added bonus is that our house looks presentable for our special guests who are coming in October...hopefully we can keep them clean till then.
