and i thought you'd LOVE to see what we have done in this house.
oh how far we've come.
this was our kitchen when we moved in... (looking south)
and then in the middle of the gut...
we took out the wall (left side)and removed absolutely everything.
and now it looks like this.
before...with the wall of cabinets that was taken down... (looking east)
obviously during the remodel...wall taken down...and the day the windows were being put in.
and after.
the central spot of my home.
that is where i spend hours and hours a day!
oh my.
do you feel like cringing? i do.
after.
that white just makes everything so bright and cheery.
and the art museum of my kiddos...happy happy happy!
looking in to the computer area...before.
those chairs are RARELY empty.
kids are in them all the time....webkinz all the time.
during the remodel...looking west.
little tiny talby.
she's barefoot.
you can send my good mommy award to meg duerksen..555 main street....
and now.
talby is so big....and still barefoot.
wall is gone.
it's all one big room instead of two.
and just for fun...
lauren was 10.
and she loved those pants. and so did i.
the ceiling was opened up to see what was up there.
and was great for hanging...if your daddy puts you up there.
six men bringing in the countertop for the island.
it was hysterical to watch.
it took a long time.
the island.
we eat every meal here.
our family fits just right.
christmas cards lined the window this year...
someone was feeling fancy...so i snapped one of him.
so...that was my before and after tour for the day.
*****edited...our kitchen work was done by Bernie Zuercher of BEZ Construction...AWESOME!!!
and our cabinets were done by Becker Cabinets in Hesston....FABULOUS!!!*********
