Drywall Work...What fun!

We have made more progress in the kitchen and everyone has been asking to see photos. Shawn is off of work this week, we hope to make a lot of progress on all this drywall work! Things started on Saturday. Shawn & Shea began to take down the cabinets. More totes came out to pack the contents of the cabinets in. We ran out of room to store them in the kitchen, they are now in our bedroom! I trip over them every night.

Tear down

Shawn took down the filler piece that was at the top of the old cabinets. We've decided to go with 42 inch cabinets, for additional storage. I was thrilled to see this tile go away!! Shawn found it easier to take down all the old drywall & put up new.

New drywall

As you can see, I have no working sink in the kitchen now. We are eating off of paper plates. I can wash cups & silver ware in the bathroom sink. The other major thing that has happened the last few days is moving of electrical. You see the new yellow wires sticking out of the wall? The one up higher is for the to be build in microwave. The one by the stool is for the refrigerator. The stove is going in the island, Shawn ran the electric for that & put my old stove over there, it does work. We're getting a feeling of how the island will be! We like it. Now...more sanding is going on at present. I'll let you know how the week progresses.
