Stilts & Cabinets

Every day I come home something changes in our kitchen. One day, I came home to a circus - well, a man on stilts plastering drywall. The next day, our living room was full of wood. Pieced together wood. Cabinets...

Today, I was happily surprised with the cabinets suspended in mid air, placed in their new home. Yay. We are almost half-way done. (Don't worry, we're staining them a dark, dark brown to match our existing trim throughout the house -- don't lie, you were worried).

Then, we proceeded to look for and test MORE paint samples. We have finally nailed down two colors we like. You'll get to see our masterpiece hues when we're all done.

The last photo is just a random photo from the World Championship Softball games. Wimgo.com, one of my company's products, sponsored the tournament. These are the alien-ish girls who worked for us to help promote the website throughout the USA vs. Italy game. Yes, they look bizarre. Get used to it. Weird IS my life recently.

Kitchen Be Gone!

Ok, here are a few updated photos from the past week, where our contractor took out our crappy old cabinets, put up a wall to separate the laundry room from the kitchen and started to sheetrock everything. Then, you'll see our lovely paint sampling... Our house is mighty dusty at this point, and we've stayed off-site the past three nights to get away from it all. We are totally having a blast with this remodel, though, and can't wait to do it to more houses in the future!

Piece out sucky cabinets!


Hello two-by-fours


It's magic -- white walls appear out of nowhere!


Trying out paint colors. Disliked the puke green we thought would be, um, fun. So, back to Lowe's it is!
