Kitchen

My brother and his new wife are living with us. When we moved into our home 2 years ago, the lower level had been converted into an apartment (1 bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom). After sitting vacant for over 6 months last year D decided to rip out the kitchen, and move his studio in. But earlier this summer my brother expressed an interest in moving in with us for a while so they could save a little and get on their feet. This required the pipes to be replaced, and a new kitchen installed.

Wednesday we bought the cabinets, Thursday we painted the walls and assembled the cabinets and Friday (thanks to Keith, Rich and my dad) the job was about half way done! Saturday and Sunday the remainder of the doors and drawers were drilled and hung, my dad plumbed the kitchen sink, and D installed the Formica counter top himself! These 3 photos show where we started from up to the job nearly completed (still have to install the fan above the stove).
