Kitchen Remodel

So here are pics of the kitchen remodel!
It is definitely interesting living in this mess with two little ones.  


This is the kitchen as we have lived in for the past five years.  It kind of started out with an italian flare.  Honestly back then I had not a clue what my "style" was and this is just what everyone else seemed to be going with.  
This is a picture of a picture, that is why it looks terrible not to mention the fact that is a scary 1967 kitchen.  This is what the kitchen looked like when we moved in the house.  Yes, take note of the lattice work, and the wall paper on the cabinet fronts. 
Clay happy with is upper cabinets torn out!  Take notice of him in his work clothes.  That is how excited he is to work on the  kitchen - he starts straight home from work and forgets to change his clothes.

The dining area before second remodel. Clay loves to tell people that this room has been five different colors in five years.  It is the truth, I have never been happy with any of the colors.  So now I am painting it off white.  We shall see...
When we moved in the dining area was wall papered and we didn't want to take the time to take it off.  So we did a little drywall texture technique that sounded good at the time, but now scraping it off...it was a REALLY bad idea.  

We have a bit more done since these photos were taken.  Clay is taking off work Friday so that we will have a four day weekend to work on it. 

Also we have done some BIG sinning this last weekend...I will post more later and pictures to prove.
