This is our kitchen...

...and about a month and a half from now, it's going to look NOTHING like this! We have decided to spend some cash and re-do our kitchen. New cabinets, new counter tops, new appliances, new paint, new window coverings, new sink (finally with a garbage disposal!). And we are so excited! We picked out a gorgeous dark brown stained cabinet (the stain is called cognac, a tad lighter then our dinning room table). We can't wait to see the finished product.

Thankfully, my dad is incredibly handy (it's the architect in him) and is going to do all the labor for us (of course we'll be assisting anyway we can, too). Then, John's dad is going to come up and paint the kitchen and family room for us--and of course, visit with Lola!

We can't wait to enjoy this new kitchen! And we hope when we go to sell our place in another 2-3 years, it will be an added selling feature. 

I promise to post pics along the way. Wish us luck! :)
