Hole-y Moley

Well, the kitchen remodel is finely underway. I can't believe how long these things take! The first step is relocating the washer and dryer to the garage. In order to do that, we (and by we, I mean Jason) had to dig out our front planter to get to the main drain. We (again, Jason) had to cut a chunk out of the garage floor. And by chunk, I mean 12 inches wide by 18 inches deep from the front of the garage to the back. That is a lot of digging. It took him and two guys ALL day to accomplish it!





We purchased all of our new appliances last week (and I tried to talk Jason into a new TV while we were at it, but he wasn't sold). I am really excited by what we picked - The fridge we chose has a water dispenser that you can tell how many cups and/or ounces to dispense (especially cool since my current fridge doesn't even have a dispenser).


Today, we went tile shopping... What a headache I had when we left. There were so many to choose from. We'd find a floor tile we liked, but it didn't match the counter we have chosen. Then we'd find tile for the back splash and couldn't find a floor tile to match. We were at the store for over an hour going back and forth, back and forth. After an hour, we finally made a decision and found a floor tile (well, it's actually three tiles) we both loved and it matched perfectly with the back splash mosaic I fell in love with and thankfully, they both coordinated with our counter top! Hooray!!

I hated remodeling, also. It was SO SO SO stressful!! Thank goodness you happened to find tiles that you really loved... and didn't have to compromise with something you could tolerate!! That's what we had done in the condo and regretted it every moment after.

Can't wait to see what it looks like when it's done :)
