Long weekend

It started thursday night when chris got home at about 12am. Usually, he stays up to wind down...but he passed out on the couch...

Because....

friday morning....chris was up early to be prepared for the cabinets to arrive...any where from 730-1030 AM.

Fyi....If you are on swing shift.....You do not like hearing those times....

We received 23 boxes! Chris began unpacking the boxes to make sure we had everything & there was no damage. Then took a trip to lowes to get a few other things for installation for the next day.

Saturday morning came quickly...9am is when my brother, bro mandry (mostly to give chris confidence that he Was installing correctly) & chris began installing the cabinets in.. It took 12 hours from start to finish!

Boy.....are they beautiful!
Chris decided to make the island a movable island, instead of a stationary island!

The next step is flooring.
On thursday the lowes countertop people are coming to measure the countertop space. It should take up to two weeks for that to come in.

Then chris will do the plumbing in the kitchen & put the sink in (or maybe he is fixing the plumbing before the countertop arrives). We will see!

My husband is becoming a jack of all trades. He can add kitchen remodel to his list of skills...along with several other skills that go under that. So far, with some help from friends/family he had been able to do EVERYTHING in that kitchen, without ousting a professional (who would end up charging, an arm..leg..and a few other limbs)!

I am...Very impressed at my husband (and buds) Work! Bud just thinks its the coolest thing that dad & him built 'a house' ;-)

(the photos will probably be out of order, they always get out of order when posting from my phone. Our laptop currently went away to the geek squad for a few weeks, so I apologize I advance) ;-)
