Now it looks like this:
Once all the framing has drywall on it this will be how open our kitchen will be to the rest of the house. There will be a short peninsula coming off of the left hand side. Needless to say we are really excited about getting this project done. Our already small kitchen has even less counter space now that we have cut out some cabinets and counter in order to remove the wall. Hopefully by the end of the week we will be close to ordering our new cabinets!
In other house news the dining room/living room is almost half textured. We made the decision to texture the walls and ceilings after having to patch with drywall where the wall dividing the original two had been. We choose to do a venetian plaster texture. While it looks really nice, it is very time consuming.
Orbit. That is the name we have chosen for the newest addition to our little clan. We were joking around about going for a celestial theme with our pet names...and Orbit kinda stuck. Orbit has not been feeling well this past weekend. Probably a combination of moving and being neutered all in one day. One round of antibiotic down and he already seems to be feeling better :).
Saturday we headed out to Aurora, NE for the 31st Annual Nebraska MCC Relief Sale for those not familiar with MCC (Mennonite Central Committee) check out there website...then donate! While we didn't buy anything at the auction we did buy some cheese, a delicious grilled windsor loin/grilled chicken dinner and, or course, ice cream.
This week does not look too promising for getting lots of inside work done. Highs in the upper 60's to upper 70's through Sunday, time for outdoor projects to get under way!
Peace,
Eric
