They're doing it again!!!

So.

Barely over a year ago,

you might remember that we spent a very busy week.

We did a little of this...

Photobucket
painting over the hideous green kitchen wall

Some of this...

Photobucket
ooh, shiny new cabinets and countertops!

A bit of this...

Photobucket
Who knew plumbing could look so good.

And a whole lotta this...

Photobucket
Starting the tile through the dining room and kitchen

Well, for some reason I never took 'after' pictures, to show off the finished job.


Which might be a good thing,

 Seeing as how we're not done yet...

Because today,

This...

Photobucket
painted wall between kitchen and dining room

Has become this...

Photobucket
Whoa! Look at that space!!!!


Yup, we're doing it again!


Only, this time...


I'll take some pictures when we're done!!!
