The Cabinets are in!!!

Well, the time has finally come for the cabinets. Talk about some obstacles! They decided to completely close are road the day the cabinets were to arrive. Luckily they the let the driver come in. The same day, the drywaller (Dave, awesome work by the way)was finishing up and Gabe was working on the gutters, the city workers stop by to tell us they hit the main gas line going to our house. YIKES!!! Good thing we don't have it hooked up to the house, yet!


So this was on Wednesday. Friday I took off of work to paint and had a visit by four Pit bulls, one coming up to me twice barking that I locked myself in the garage for a bit till I could sneak in the house to call the police. That was scary! Bad news is they live two houses away, which I don't think we are aloud four dogs so this should be interesting. But, my dogs were in the house and I am ok so I guess we are ok. But I am definitely getting a bigger fence and a gate over the driveway. Anyone know were to get a gate?




Friday afternoon Rich showed up and the fun began! We worked on the base cabinets till 1am.
Rich is like the energizer bunny and just keeps going. I couldn't, so I went home to the dogs and back we went in the morning.
Aaron and Jonelle came over to help with the Hanging cabinets. Here Aaron barely had to raise his arms, and Gabe is using everything in his short little arms to hold up the cabinet. HEHE.






Becky, was the Foreman taking pictures, and doing a good job watching us with her cute little pouch.

Well, now the cabinets are in and the really hard part has started! Picking out tile and counter tops, YUK! After 4 hours of shopping I went home to drink. I can't wait till I can fill my new wine cabinet up. I already bought 4 new bottles:)
This Cabinet is my favorite!
Here is the other part of the kitchen. I love all the space.
Now, we just have to finish the floors and my cabinet!

The cabinets look great! Becky's little pouch is too cute. The boys are great friends for helping you out. I wish Ryan was around to help you guys more. Life here has been nuts.

Michelle and Gabe-
Your kitchen looks beautiful! You have made huge progress! I know how it feels to have a house under construction. Even though its just our basement, our upstairs is still a mess. Hopefully we will be able to see you guys soon.
