We are officially one month into this massive project. So far everything is going very well! We are a tiny bit behind schedule due to some illness hitting our house! However, we are still on track to be done by October 23rd! Two weeks from now I will be able to look into the kitchen and dining room and it will be a total transformation.
So, where are we at?? Well this past weekend we made huge progress!
The new sink, faucet, and garbage disposal arrived on Friday. The new counters arrived on Saturday and on Sunday the new appliances arrived!
On Saturday Jake worked on sanding cabinets while I worked on priming and painting them! On Sunday I finished the second coat of paint in the kitchen. Jake installed a new back door - we had timed this to happen when the new appliances were delivered because the door had to be completely removed, not to mention it was an old wooden door that was completely warped and impossible to shut. Sunday afternoon my dad helped Jake hang the upper cabinets in the kitchen. He is capable of installing the base cabinets but it was sure nice to have someone stronger than me to help install the uppers!
Although the pictures don't particularly show the large amount of progress that was made over the weekend....believe me, we are getting closer and both Jake and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel...still a ways away, but it is there!
