We finally decided on the medium wood look for our kitchen. So Friday was spent putting together cabinets & trying to get the kitchen ready for the applicances on Saturday. We only brought 5 cabinets to get us started considering we don’t have the sink or the washer/dryer moved. So we will have a small (18″) & big (30″) cabinet on either side of the stove. Plus matching cabinets above with a small one right above the stove for when we get our micro-hood.

Now all we need are the cabinet door & hardware. Oh, & they need to actually be in the kitchen!

Because we will be having a micro-hood we need a plug closer to that cabinet so Gregg started putting one in late that night.

Step 1 make lots of practice holes

Step 2 mark your hole

Step 3 you’re almost done

On Thursday I needed to exchange a Christmas present @ Ikea so while we were there we looked again at their kitchen cabinets since on Saturday we should have our new applicances. I was really liking a dark wood traditional style but we had also liked the less traditional medium brown style.

I wonder what we will pick? Especially with that new wood floor in the dining room & living room.

So to throw things around we moved our dining room arrangement around. So hopefully at the holidays we will have a better place to put food to help serve people.
