Progress and Play Time

The kitchen is moving along now. In the first month there was so much done, but not a lot of visible progress...well, apart from an entire wall disappearing. They did electrical work, plumbing, insulation - important stuff that doesn't look very dramatic. But in the last week they've done new hardwoods, finished the coffered ceiling, and are in the process of installing the cabinets! So exciting!!

Here is the kitchen at the beginning of the day yesterday. Coffered ceiling is done - it's amazing!

By the end of the day, here's what it looked like...

And here's the wall with the fridge and pantry...

And since the weather is beautiful and we are tired of being stuck in the basement, the boys and I went over to the Saddle River to do one of their very favorite things...throw rocks in the water. We picnicked there for dinner and then grabbed ice cream before heading home to scrub off lots of mud and chocolate. Good times!
