This was an exciting week as we closed on our house on Thursday, and today made the first significant renovations. The house has been well taken care of, but there are many updates that can be done over the next few years. The first one we are tackling is the kitchen and dining room. We wanted to remove most of the wall separating the two rooms so that there could be a nice flow between the two spaces. The two other objectives are to create more counter space in the kitchen for cooking and baking and to swap the sliding door in the kitchen with the window in the dining room.
Two great friends from Living Waters who have lots of construction and renovation experience helped me during this first day. Thanks Jim and Gary! Now that the wall has been cut out and parts of the kitchen moved around, we are seeing what the kitchen will look like when all is said and done. Tomorrow Emily and I will remove the old wall paper from the kitchen (groan) and re-secure the floor to the floor joists to remove squeeks. Woo hoo.
