The Kitchen

The kitchen is coming along.  The cabinets are done we are waiting on pulls.  Of course the inexpensive nice ones I found online are backordered until February.  Whatever!  We will get new countertops when we save up the money this spring sometime and then a backsplash sometime in the next year.  Jeff painted the kitchen last weekend and it looks great so the backsplash is a little less important but I do want some bling still.   : )
Here are pics from the next round of changes and then I will post pics of the finished cabinets which look amazing!

 They took all the doors and drawers to refinish them at their shop.  They took out the non-working microwave above the stove and they tore up the soffitt and pulled it back to just above the cabinets.

 We did end up replacing the lighting this round instead of waiting because it was much less expensive since the wires were all exposed because the soffitt was open.

 The lighting made such a difference, I came in and started crying.  The kitchen looked so beautiful even without drawers and doors.

 This is Sam and Emelia's favorite morning activity, cuddling on the couch, it is pretty sweet till she steals the blanket or he pushes her off the couch.

This about sums up our effort to take a family Christmas picture.  It totally makes me laugh, I love it!
