The weekend is over and we have moved on to trimming out the kitchen this week but, LOOK what we got done!! The large cabinet is in place and the counter top has been resized to fit until later. Also notice the electrical plug has been moved up to the counter top where I will put the wine cooler. Things are moving along nicely now. The heavy stuff is done and only the trimming out to finish. The tall cabinet is taller than it shows. Will try to download another picture of it in all its glory later. My broom finally has a new home and the swiffer too! YEA!!!!!

So, here is a special surprise this morning in my front garden. The flowers are blooming and I am so happy. With the hot summer and drough here I'm surprise they are so beautiful this year. Ther are three more presenting buds that should be in full color by next weekend. What a special gift on a early March morning!
end of the day
Here is the finished job for today. All the cabinets are in place and fastened down. At the far end you can see an electric outlet that we are going to move before we put in the rest of the cabinets. We will bring it up to counter hieght and then continue to put in the last of the cabinets.
phase two!
So here are the first two big pieces put in place yeaterday. We were anxious to seee how they would look.
second phase
This will be a long week as we have started to do the other sidse of the kitchen. We cleaned out the old cupboards of all the staples and then proceeded to demolish the wood framing. The counter will be saved to put back on top, we hope, until we are all done and then we will purchase all the toppers for the all the kitchen.
We had spent the weekend putting together the new cabinets. One was a real jigsaw puzzle. It was the lazy susan corner . It took us almost 5 hours to put together. As you can see our livingroom is torn up too just making room for all the new cabinets to be put together. Yes, He put the cabinet on my new diningroom table. Oh, the sacrifices we make for a new kitchen at times. And puppy had to be in the middle of all the action.
He is smiling now but there were moments of a less happy face during all of the putting together.
Today we will get back to work and get the rest of the framework torn out and then install the new ones starting with the corner cabinet. There is a monster of a heavy tall cabinest to put in in that will be a utility cabinet for all my cleaning supplies. We will definately need help moving that one. Brother and probablly the neighbor boy will help with that for sure.
Here is morning to night fall work for one day! Start with old...
