New Kitchen!!

Okay, so not *totally* a new kitchen, but a huge improvement!

Right after Thanksgiving, we had new Staron countertops installed and then on Dec 23rd when my dad got to town he put up tile backsplash for us....it looks awesome! I love it so much! I don't think that Dad even had his jacket off before he had the tile up and it was all grouted the next morning before I got out of bed! (BTW I am sending your fleece vest that you left in the closet Dad!) Thank you so much for your help!!!! Rob and I probably would have been divorced had we tried it on our own with 2 little "helpers" underfoot :)

Here is a before picture from when we bought the house and the now picture (some done a couple of years ago: moved microwave above stove, moved our Elgin appliances to GT Hills - some done last year: painting and trimming above the sink instead of a straight board - and the counters/backsplash done this year)
































I love, love the sink! It's all one piece integrated into the countertops....no grooves for cleaning!













The tiles have metallic brushed silver ones scattered. It matches the faucet and the light fixtures in the house!

The 'after' picture looks so much more like a home! I love it!

Wow, the kitchen looks great. I love the backsplash. I totally want one, but I want to wait until we sell this home and get a different one...no need to invest more in it :)
