Drumroll please....

Da da da da da! We are finally done! There are a few things that are left to do but the majority is done Yay! We redid the whole house with new flooring and new paint but the kitchen was by far the most costly and hardest room to remodel. I want to give a huge shout out to my hubby who did things he never knew he could. He laid about 1000 square feet of tile (60 boxes to be exact or three pallets), put a new ceiling in, built cabinets, re plumbed the kitchen, and rewired the whole kitchen. He was amazing! Me, not so much. I was very impatient and not very understanding when it came to not having a kitchen for over a month. When I did my last batch of dishes in the bathroom sink I did a celebratory dance. But, it was all worth it and I am so glad we endured through it. Now we need to clean up the backyard because it looks like the city dumps. That is where we threw all our tear outs and garbage. So if you drive by no it is not a landfill we have just been a little busy with the inside and have neglected the outside for a while.

Wow! It is so so so beautiful! I love your cabinets. I love the tile back splash. I love your countertops. I love your little desk area--perfect place to sit and blog. OK, so I love everything about it. I bet you are one excited girl to start cooking in it. I can't imagine doing my dishes in the bathroom. That takes patience. :)
I really need to come out to your house now to see this masterpiece.
What a great and talented husband. Hope you are enjoying it!

How my gosh! It looks AWESOME! Matt did a great job. Sorry I didn't get back with you on the make and take, but I was busy with birthdays, blessings, and weddings. What a busy month. I want that frog though, so if she will still let me buy one I would love to make it. Why don't I just take lessons from you? It looks like you can already do all of it :) I want to come and see the house. It looks so different from when I was last there.
