The last weeks have been CRAZY PRODUCTIVE!

So the kitchen - yeah, we haven't updated you all on that for a while.

Rory contemplating the possibilities - and thinking that it might be fun to
play with that 220 line sticking out of the floor

We've come a long way in the last few weeks...

Cabinets were finally installed, no trim, no appliances (except for the range)

We got our countertops right after Easter - and the guys from Quality Surfaces did a great job.

We did the granite - Arctic Pearl on the back and under-window area
and Black Pearl on the island - the cooktop disappears into it.

And then things really started coming together fast

Black Pearl - yaaaarrrrrgggghhhhhh (Pirates of the Carribbean reference).
Please also note that the guys from Yoder Dame had completed the
upper mouldings and that the LED can-lights were on!

Add some glass backsplash tile, hardware (almost all of it), remove floors that used to end at the half-wall (because you need about 4 more inches to make it to the tile)...

And then add it back in.

Transition strips laid in temporarily to prevent toddler tripping

The house as it sits tonight - shoe moulding on the toekicks, light rail moulding in. All appliances in-place. LED can lights on.

Ignore the reflection in the back window...

Island view - still need to add some hardware and
protective film still on oven drawer

Sink area with spotlights on - glass tile and
dishwasher very visible. Note the sweet
glass door peninsula (two-sides with doors)
cabinets in the island.

SO CLOSE!
