A kitchen update

Since our Phoenix trip our main effort has been applied to getting our kitchen ready for it's appliance delivery today - our fridge, dishwasher, microwave, grill, floors and kitchen accent back splash are arriving within hours! What about a stove you may ask? More on that later! In order to accommodate these items we needed to get the floors at least completed in the areas of installation and prime and paint our kitchen cabinets.

We have the kitchen floor mostly complete, the doors and drawers are primed but need their first and second coat of paint. The kitchen base and wall cabinets have been primed and painted with their first coat of paint. We're hoping the 2nd coat of paint on the cabinets makes the cabinets look more chocolately and less of an eggplant black color. We're hoping the eggplant purple is just the primer showing through the first coat.

Here is a good island before picture. Levi is chomping at the bit to set the butchar block on top just to see what it looks like, with each development concerning the island he has wanted break the huge and heavy butchar block out of it's box and carry it from the garage to the kitchen. Now we're only one day from being able to do just that and screw it on.

We're near completion of the kitchen, we still need to do the final coats of paint, add the butchar block, finish the floors, put the doors and drawers back in place, maybe add hardware, install the faucet, install the sink disposer, and do all the plumbing that all of that requires, tile the backsplash, add undercabinet lighting, and rewire the track light to position pendant lights over the island, install our chandelier and buy a table, chair and island stools. For now we're just looking forward to our first dinner in our house tonight, having ice come out of our fridge!
