We Did It!

Yes, we did gut our kitchen...infact we have been working on this since early February. Keeping this a secret has been so hard! After 22 years and raising our family in a teeny tiny kitchen we now have a kitchen that is twice the size. We took out walls, expanding in 2 different directions.

In February we gutted the kitchen:

In March new cabinets arrived, but they were the WRONG cabinets, not the ones we ordered.

In April the RIGHT cabinets arrived, so the WRONG ones were removed and the RIGHT ones installed. On Friday, April 14th they finished the electrical and plumbing....YEEHAW!!! So we worked hard getting the kitchen boxes out of the livingroom, bedroom, guest room and various other places around the house.
Blessings:
there was no needed structural repairs (no dryrot, not bug damage)

we don't eat an evening meal so quick meals were easy for almost 9 wks

the company we worked with took full responsibility for the wrong cabinets

we didn't loose our minds, we still have what little we started with
