New kitchen - Finally!!

Goodbye forever....
We renovated our kitchen and yes, it was a nightmare but well worth it! I have a new floor, lights, appliances and well, just a new whole being!! I love it! I am so thankful of what Bryan decided to do, that man is a genious! He saw what this kitchen could be and did it, I on the other hand, could only spit out, "I want an island bar, with bar stools again!" And of course... "I wonder what colors I will use in here?"
I am forever in debt to him for transforming my kitchen for me, I love him so much!
Thanks Bryan! I love you!
One last look... Goodbye old kitchen, we won't miss you!

This was a bar and on the other side was a u-shaped desk area, we took all that out too!

View into what is now the keeping room


This was the island we had when we bought the house, the door led to a pantry and on the left side of the island was a Butler's pantry that led into the dining room

Old kitchen, an island cooktop to the left and a wall behind it, very narrow! and... check out the parquet floor!

After the three walls came out and putting support beams in place until the major beam gets here!

Looking into my gallery, what a mess!

Looking at what used to be a pantry and a old Butler's pantry on the other side

New island and now I have a seats on this side, not a wall!


We didn't change anything over here, except the microwave and oven, which you can't see, we will probably change the dishwasher later.

Looking into my beautiful keeping room, that used to be a narrow little opening, with a wall to the right and my dining table was out there where the sofa is.

I love it!!

Looking into the kitchen from the keeping area, to the left is the dining room and straight ahead you can get to the front or back door. No chairs at the table, as little Baylee will climb up on the table!
You can't see it, but to the left is a small built in desk for me, it is just right!
