Coming together

We got our granite counter tops today!! It's one HUGE step closer to being done.

The Granite is really shiny, so the pictures have a bit of a glare, but here is an up close picture of what it looks like:


Here are pictures from a bunch of different angles. As you can see, the sink isn't fully installed. They asked us to wait 24 hours before putting it in. By this time tomorrow, I should be able to cook!! (and clean up-the essential missing piece)








This is our arch. Remember that big ugly wall?? Well, now it's this awesome arch. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. It is amazing!



We are pushing for a February 8th deadline, so I should have lots of updates soon!

Cabinet Update

The cabinet install is complete! Well . . .Kind of. The tambour unit and molding can not be installed until the granite is put in. They are coming out to template tomorrow. It will be about 2 weeks from the template until they install the granite. So, we have a little ways to go, but this is a HUGE improvement!!

Here are my favorite features:

My New Microwave!!



Here is the cookie sheet/cutting board drawer:


A couple of shots of my SUPER cabinet!!



And, the best thing of all: My trash cans! I can not stand trash cans you can see. Now I have great trash cans AND they are hidden!






So far so good!!
