bye bye wall...

it's time to fall!

{clearly too much Dr.Seuss lately...}

ahhh so nice and open!!
{verrrrrrrry messy - but open!!}

we made it, we survived...

it took a week of near torture and agony...

but we are ready for the kitchen!

{let's just hope our kitchen guys feel the same}

no good reno goes without it's roadblocks,

we should be used to it by now...

{is it really something one can get used to though?! shouldn't be!}

this kitchen has brought us several roadblocks!

the first irritation: one week later,

here we are still waiting to get our kitchen back.

{don't they know I'm "cooking" out of a toaster oven in gray's big boy room?!?}

tomorrow is supposed to be the day...

so keep your fingers crossed for us!

and at least someone has adapted nicely to the chaos!

update...

our progress at the end of day two looks something like this:

so far we have found:

 * the dishwasher is hooked up to the bathroom plumbing

* there is no water shut off in the entire house!

* the mess tile leaves behind is time consuming to remove

{really?!? can't you just crumble away so we can move on?!}

but not everything is a set-back!

kitchens always seem to unveil the best of lost treasures!

{we're pretty sure that key unlocks a treasure chest buried somewhere in the house...}
