It's like camping...sort of.

Today was day 1 of the kitchen remodel, as of 10 am this morning we no longer have cabinets, counters, a sink or a dishwasher. Hopefully the new cabinets and counters will be in tomorrow but still no sink for another day. It's been like camping out, it is crazy how much you take counter space and a sink for granted LOL. The kitchen is just a disaster zone so the kiddos are eating in their highchairs in the living room for the next couple of days. They had their first ever Happy Meals today...they enjoyed it but were told they would not be getting these often.

Getting started

Xander grabbed his hammer and put on his Dad's shoes...he was so upset that he couldn't help.
Quick look at the new granite! I will try to get a better pic, it is a pretty gray with green and lots of flecks...I think it is going to be hard to capture it in a picture.

End of day 1.
The first Happy Meal :)

We also tore out the rose bushes that used to be infront of the living room window. They were very pretty but didn't bloom until they hit like 7-8ft tall and were totally blocking the window and touching the roof. Jason dug them out and a buddy of his took them so at least they went to a good home. Now to pick some new flowers that will stay only waist high.
Our other flower bed needs some new flowers too....gotta go perennials this time since we obviously don't have a green thumb between us, maybe something that you just plant once and it keeps coming back will fare better.
