Kitchen Remodel

We're about a month into our kitchen remodel and it's looking GREAT!  

This is what we started with...a wall in the middle of nowhere that blocked the kitchen from the rest of the house.

Scott had a GREAT time with demolition! 

Busting out the wall...such a difference already!

The wall is GONE!  It's so bright and open! 

The tile floor is gone (well, technically it's still in that pile on the floor, but it's not attached anymore!) and the countertops are coming out!

Funny story - As we were loading chunks of countertop in the truck to take to the dump a neighbor stopped by to see what we were up to.  After some chatting, we learned that the previous owner had installed these countertops just a year before we moved in!  We felt a little bad tearing them out so soon, but it's not our fault he had bad taste! :)

Now that we've finished the demo, we've started the finishing work to make it beautiful!  The new island cabinets have been installed (pictures to come!) and the countertop guys are coming out tomorrow to template!  We hope to tile the floor this weekend and finish up with painting!  Hopefully we'll have a finished kitchen to show off in a couple weeks! :)
