here we are...

on the other end of the kitchen floor

tah-dah!! 

{as of saturday}

{uhhhhh...ignore the brackets on the island...not so pretty now but once covered by beautiful marble who will notice?!}

and then...

 {ok so you can't see all of it, but under that cardboard is some awesome hardwood!}

it's been a bit of a slow process...

working our "day" jobs means getting home late...

which means by the time husband gets all the tools ready,

it's dinner time and then bedtime for the babes...

which means no using those tools because hardwood install is loud!!

so weekends only it is!! 

it doesn't help that we started in the most difficult room,

having the most objects to cut around.

{don't worry island, we love you!!}

it only means that now that we're done the kitchen

{I say "we" like I myself did something...it's really all husband on the labour front}

its all open rooms from here!!

so hopefully next weekend we get the bedrooms and living room done!

until then...

we are all going to enjoy the new, proper placement of our fridge and dishwasher!

{don't they look so pretty and proud in their new cubbies?!}
