Kitchen Before and After.

Since pregnancy has had me spending all of my free time sleeping the past 3 months, I need to play catch up, posting some of what we've been up to since April.

One of the more exciting things was having our kitchen remodeled.  Our house was built in the 60s, and had not been updated much before we bought it in September of 2006.  Before we moved in we had the hardwoods refinished, the kitchen tiled, new doors and light fixtures installed, wallpaper torn down and every wall repainted.  These updates made a world of difference, but the master bath and the kitchen were still in need of some work.  In the summer of 2009 we had the bathroom remodeled, so the only missing piece has been our kitchen counter tops.

Not anymore!  We replaced the old green counter tops for black granite and a new back splash.  We decided to use a granite tile instead of splurging on a large piece of granite.  We got an updated look for less than half the price.  We were very pleased with how it turned out.  Now our house feels complete!


Happy April Fool's Day!

This evening we started our new Bible study at church. It's called "For Women Only". It's about understanding men. I'm excited, because who wouldn't want to know more about understanding their other half? So, maybe next Wednesday I will have some insight for us ladies.

We found out we are getting money back on our taxes. That's the best news we've had all year! I'm looking forward to having the salon completely paid for by the end of the summer. Such a blessing! Then I am hoping we will be able to do a little remodeling around the house. We have been wanting to update our bathrooms and kitchen since they are the only rooms we didn't get to completely redo when we moved in.

Big news! We are gonna have a baby!





APRIL FOOLS! (I wanted to do that to Gary, but decided it was too mean.)
