It's Official

The kitchen is done. Last night I washed a bunch of dishes in the dish washer. I've never been so excited to do dishes in my life! And I hate doing dishes so that's a big deal. It's still a mess in there so no pictures yet. I'll post soon before and after pictures. It's going to be great. For now, here are a couple pictures of us working away...

More painting...



Me painting... Notice above me the upper cabinets are on the wall! Sorry for the bad picture. This view is from the entry of the living room. To the right is our front door and to the left is a coat closet full of boxes. Which, is all cleaned out and painted now!



Me painting again... I painted the most :)



But Tyler did all the handy work.



Hooking up the sink. It is much harder than it looks. But, the dishwasher and garbage disposal are hooked up and we have running water!



Overall, this has been a good/learning experience. Someday we might completely remodel an old home, like this 12 bedroom beauty in Chicago:



It's selling price you might ask? $18,500

I LOVE that house, too. I tried to talk Tyler into selling his cars, buying it, and remodeling it for me...
