Our lovely kitchen

January 2010:

This is one of the few things we have done in the last month. We brought our stuff that was in our cabinets in the other house to the new house. We had fun trying to organize the new cabinets. We had so much space, we didn't know what to do with it all. It is fun to go grocery shopping, and then come home and put everything away. Here are some pictures I just took of the kitchen. It is starting to feel like a home---what a great feeling!

A view from by the back door of the kitchen.

Another view of the kitchen. Do you notice the countertop on the island?

That wasn't there before. We will eventually put 3 or 4 barstools under there

use it as a place to eat.

This cabinet is to the left of the sink. The bottom cabinet is pretty sweet.

Those shelves with the cans swing open, and you can put more stuff behind it.

Another view of the kitchen. Now, I am standing in the corner with the fridge on one side and the dishwasher on the other. You will notice that the countertops next to the stove still need stained. Also, the walls by the backdoor and window still needs some sanding and painted.

Another view of the kitcehn with the dishwasher. I love having a dishwasher and a garbage disposal, it makes doing the dishes so much more enjoyable.

Our fridge and microwave.

There is my banana holder. I love that thing. Haha!

Kraftmaid cabinets are awesome! This one has a spice rack in it.

This cabinet is below our sink. The top one tilts out, and has a space to put sponges in. I don't really know what to put in that thing that is connected to the door yet. Maybe some time of cleaning stuff.

Our freezer is awesome. It opens on the bottom and has that top drawer that slides in and out.

Fridge all opened up with yummy food.

Our pantry cabinet. So much room! As you can see, to the right of this picture is the living room. Not even close to being done yet.

Even though the kitchen looks done, there is still some minor things to do---backsplash, cabinet door holders, painting the ceiling, taking the cover off the vent hood, finishing the backwall. Not to mention, buying a kitchen table and chairs, and window covers and such.
