Our new kitchen

John and I were sitting in the basement one weekday night in February and decided we should do a kitchen reno. Of course, it's taken a lot longer then we expected (over 5 months) but we can finally say we're done (well, enough that we could take a picture). It's the last major improvement to be made on our top 2 floors - now we only have the basement and the driveway!

The kitchen before (August 2004)

After! (August 2009)

We put in a new cork floor, got the cabinets painted, updated the lighting and hardware, and got new appliances, countertop, paint, trim and backsplash.
