The Kitchen Install (Most of it!)

Image
  We chose white wood Kraftmaid cabinets from Lowe's.  We planned to go to three or four places to compare; but Lowe's had a great designer, Rick, and a huge sale.  We got the cabinets, counter tops, and installation for a lot less than we thought we'd pay.  We have been super happy with their customer service and the people who measured and installed the cabinets!  (Yay for JSB grads!) The kitchen sink cabinet was not made for the apron sink I have, so it was reordered and should arrive soon.   We have purchased the windows and hope to put them in next week.  Pete has all of the electrical and plumbing updated - with a little help!  Our appliances are all in the dining room - which is a huge feat!  Thanks, Dwayne, for helping get that monstrous fridge through the back door! Yesterday, Pete finished touching up the blue ceiling and added all of the switch plates and covers.   Since my pictures are on my phone, computer, and in ...

Happy New Year! It sure is cold and windy today!  Sam and I ran to Walmart in preparation for the snow coming Monday or Tuesday!  We moved some boxes of pictures from the garage to the house before we left, so we will have a big project to work on IF it snows here!   I have meant to update this for soooo long.  But time gets away.  We have gotten lots done, and we were able to have a surprise party for Andrew's 30th birthday in December.  Pete started the kitchen backsplash, and that's huge!  It's been so long.  We still don't have a definite date from (anyone?  anyone?) about starting the upstairs, but I trust we can do it in the spring!   I thought I'd most some pictures of what we have gotten done so far!  These above are just a reminder to me of not long ago! Well, I just realized that I need to take more kitchen pictures!  It's been a struggle to get all of the cabinet doors in.  We still don't have all of t...

Merry Christmas 2024!

Merry Christmas!  I'll post our Christmas card here for those I missed!  I really need to update my list! I used this scripture passage in the past but felt it was fitting again this year.  As I get older, time is getting shorter.  The ONLY thing that matters in my life is sharing Jesus, pointing to Him, and praying those who don't know Him will come to know Him.  Of course family is important.  Jobs are important.  Responsibilities are important.  However, time drainers and material things are not.  As my brother says about "stuff" - Less is more!  Casting away all of the things that don't matter gives more time for the most important.    We just cannot know how good God is until we realize how bad we are.  All of us.  Every one.  I'm so thankful He saved a wretch like me! May you know the JOY of Christmas as we celebrate, worship, and adore the Savior of the World ~ Jesus Christ ~ the One who loves us most! Pra...
