Kitchen Remodel has begun

We started our kitchen remodel today. The Rev and I have wanted to do this for a long time and now the time has come. Carol and Christy and I cleaned out the cupboards and prepared the room last night getting ready for the start today. Here are the before pictures.

  

Brandon and Daryl arrived at 8 AM this morning to get started and by noon this is what we had.

This looks like a good start to me. By the end of the day it should look even uglier. This getting exciting.

I should probably set the stage a bit. We have been working with Brandon and Daryl from Ideal Construction on getting this project done. They are the guys that did our basement remodel a couple of years ago so I have trust their judgement and direction. Brandon suggested we contact Jeri Duenow at the Ar-Jay Center for the cabinets. So off went to see Jeri. She did a great job of designing our new kitchen and getting the cabinets made. Now it is time to get to work on making this new room a reality. We will see how it goes.
