Something has to go wrong...

Obviously something always has to go wrong when major things have been going on! So far with only one day until closing (eek! doing my happy dance!) we have only had a little snag in the closing process but it was fixed and here we are still closing on time. Well Casey and I have been trying to gather supplies for the home renovation projects we want to start on Wednesday so last Friday we made a trip to Home Depot (about a 90 minute drive) to pick up the tiling supplies we needed. We had a very helpful flooring associate who helped us get everything we needed and realized they didn't have as much tile as we needed. Ok, not a huge deal since we are tiling 2 rooms and one is pretty darn big. They could order more and we could just come back and get it. Fast forward to Monday. We knew our tile was coming in so we borrowed my sister's truck so we could pick the tile and some cement board up and bring it home. We get to Home Depot and walk in at the pickup area and kind of smile because there's a pallet with cementboard and a pallet of tile sitting there waiting for us! Ahhh service! Casey was going to deal with getting everything loaded and I was sent on a scavenger hunt to gather more supplies. I found everything I needed and headed back to meet him and I knew something was wrong. They had loaded the cement board but the pallet of tile was still just sitting there. Turns out the wrong tile had been shipped to the store and it wasn't our tile!! Ahhh! We drove all the way over here for nothing (ok not absolutely nothing because we did get other things but it's the principal of the thing)

Fast forward, Home Depot did rectify themself, they shipped it to our home for free so we did not have to make anymore trips! Yay! We finally received the correct tile!
