FINALLY!

The kitchen BEFORE (oh so ugly)!

After 3 VERY long months of having our kitchen torn apart (and doing our part to "stimulate" the economy), Tim finished our kitchen! It should have been finished the beginning of April but we had some setbacks. The granite countertop people put down the wrong color (a mossy green) AND our order for the cabinets was never faxed through. Talk about a double whammy! I won't complain now, because I LOVE my kitchen! Tim even tiled the backsplash. This is a room that had original countertops and cabinets (30 years old). No matter how hard I scrubbed the counters they always looked stained and dirty. I used to hate going in the kitchen because of how nastified it was. Now I can cook, be happy, and get fat! Aren't handy man husbands great?!

Who knew Tim was so handy? Growing up he was handy at getting out of work and now your place is being transformed. It looks great! Nice kitchens are a must for good sanity. Enjoy! When are you guys going to come down and visit us in Atlanta
