New Kitchen

Our new kitchen is almost done, floors to be refinished and extended into the family room, floor trim to be put in and outlet covers to be put on. We did most of the design and layout ourselves, along with the work (with some help on both from Ma and Pa Smith). With the wall gone, it is amazing how open the rooms feel now, and there is so much space to cook!

Here is what it looks like so far. There are a few "during construction" photos and some "almost done with construction" photos. Never noticed how much junk was on our refrigerator until I looked at these photos. Yikes! But the girls like having their stuff on there, so there it stays. The desk in the kitchen is very nice, and the open family room has been great for family Wii time, which the girls are happy for now that the work is almost done!
