My New Kitchen

So as some of you know, Jeremy and I got at the kitchen after our trip to Winnipeg. We've been busy getting things put back together, and I'm happy to say that for the most part, the kitchen was done before Jeremy went back to work! Yippeee for us! haha.

Here is a picture of the wood chips we found in our walls (the reason for us to redo the kitchen!).
This silly slats that made the job of redrywalling a pain in the butt!
See I helped! LOL Jeremy's hoodie makes me look a little like I'm pregnant! but I'm not!
Pink insulation to help us actually stay warm this summer! lol

Drywall up!

These last pictures are what my Kitchen currently looks like. Now let me explain the boxes of cereal, the coffee mate, and the dog food....lol The Extra Foods Grocery store out here is changing to a No Frills grocery store, so they had huge sales to get rid of all the stuff they weren't going to sell anymore. That doesn't mean they won't be selling HoneyCombs...lol Just not that size box. I can't remember what we got the boxes of cereal for, but I think it was close to 3 bucks for the jumbo sized box. I went back this last Tuesday and they had more stuff marked down even further...Most everything was 94 cents!!! Nestle Baby Cereal...94 Cents...I bought like 10 boxes. Jars of Baby food...24 Cents. Yeah I went a little nuts and walked away spending 122 dollars on 94 cent items! LOL But I shouldn't have to buy a lot of stuff for a long time!

The cupboards actually have a Faux Finish on them called Sandwash. They have it at Home Depot, so the cupboards are actually kinda rough to the touch. But I think they turned out wonderfully!

We found the yellow to be a bit BRIGHT! lol Even with the cupboards painted the dark color. So we decided to make the stairs wall the same color, however, you can't buy the exact color just for paint, only in the faux finish. So Jeremy picked this color out all by himself. It's a tad darker then the cupboards, but you really can't notice.
