Countertops, Running Water, and a Dishwasher, Oh My!

Well the day has FINALLY come!!! We have running water!! Johnny came over today and hooked up our sink and dishwasher. I cannot believe we have gone this long without it! Everything is starting to come together. So now everything is getting a good cleaning and will be put back in its place. Yay!!!

30 Years Young

You are a great mom, wife, and friend! We hope you enjoy your big day!

Hardware, Check!

All of the hardware is officially installed. Other than that, not much has changed. I touched up the doors so I should be finished painting for now. The walls need to be painted but I am waiting to see how it looks with everything all put together. I'm not sure if I want to stick with the current color or try something different. We should be getting counter tops soon. I am picking up the faucet tomorrow, I can't wait to see everything back in its place! Besides the counter tops, all we have to do is install crown molding on the cabinets and install the tile back splash.

Waiting For Dad

All I have to say is "Dad is going to be home soon!", and this is where he sits, and waits........



This is Roscoe tonight, wishing I would leave him alone

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like........

A kitchen!! I have cabinet doors again!! I was a busy bee on Wednesday. I installed the drawer pulls, which was a breeze because Johnny is a genius! The pulls were metric and the template I had wasn't, but he fixed that! I was also able to intall the rest of the cabinet doors and I finally feel like things are coming together. There is still a lot to be done, but I feel like the worst is over.

An Over the Range Microwave?

Who would have thought? I never thought I could have an over the range microwave in this house. I have thought about it before, but I just figured it would be a HUGE pain in the butt. Well, it was a HUGE pain in the butt. But thanks to Johnny and Sergio (Sergio's dad), we now have one! This is not something we had planned to do. But considering the microwave was priced at about $400 less than its original price, it was hard to pass up. We had to stagger the cabinets, but it will look better once we put crown molding on them. We are waiting on the counter tops, they should be here in about 2-3 weeks. All I have left to do is paint the top cabinet doors. The end is near!

One Year Ago

I was going through my pictures of Lucy and I found some pictures of her from last Halloween. She was a cute little lady bug. It is so fun to look back in time and see how much she has changed!

Trick or Treat

I had a little visitor last night, Minnie Mouse! I must say she was the cutest Minnie Mouse I have ever seen. She had a small obsession with the candy, but that's ok, that kind of stuff is allowed on Halloween. She had a trick too!
