Progress Report

Well I am happy to report that our kitchen update is going great!  Last Friday we had new granite counter top installed.  Who knew just upgrading counter tops could greatly improve your kitchen?  OK I'm sure everyone knew, but wow! 

A little PRE-installation pic!!  My hubby, myself and our wonderful neighbor removed all of the old counter tops.

 This picture may not QUITE show you how great they look, but the next one will.

My hubby and I are trying our hand at installing new backsplash!  So what do you think?  It really is a pretty easy DIY!  We have one more wall to finish and grouting, but after this weekend everything should be done except the cabinets.  We are working on getting estimates on having them painted rather than doing them ourselves.  We shall see...
