Kitchen Update... Almost Done!

Michael and I are LOVING the new kitchen. It has been exciting to see our original design come to life. It was only 37 George Foreman meals ago that we were staring at the computer screen with our plan. The only thing left is the back splash!

Yay! More photos to come when the back splash is done! Come over for dinner!

Kitchen Update... Cabinets are going in!

Thanks mom and dad for your hard work this past week! I am lucky to have some handy guys in my fam :)

This week: painting, wall and base cabinets installed, appliances arrive, gas, heating (an entire day spent finding parts) and some plumbing work.

Recessed lighting added (thank you david and susan!)... and they have a dimmer, YES!

Michael and my dad working on hanging the cabinets

Our badass stove.

...and fridge. Lots of cheese will be stored.

Martie loves it!

Thank god they are in charge of the math.

More cabinets up!

The stove will go here with the microwave suspended over.

Fridge has a home on the left and sink will be added to the right.

Here is what the doors/pulls will look like!

Base cabinets are added...

Mom having fun with Haskell!

...and I get a little lovin' too.

Kitchen Reno: The Beginning...

Living in Stonington has been amazing. Downtown Mystic right down the road, the boating, the beach, great restaurants and Haskell's favorite... the dog park. We have made many upgrades to our 1959 ranch, but this is the biggest yet. Michael and I have officially started our kitchen renovation! I will continue posting photos as we progress... Very exciting!

Say goodbye... we are going to miss that stove.

...and the Tiffany blue countertop

Haskell is saying goodbye!

No more floating fridge!! YES!

The face of the cabinets comes off

The shelving comes down

Haskell is confused because she can't find her food bowl.

My favorite view...

Upper cabinets are GONE! It was a beast pulling those things out.
They came out all in one piece.

Haskell approves.

Michael is going to keep growing his hair out until the kitchen is done...

Goodbye lower cabinets!

Vino break...
