Kitchen island

On Friday we began working on the kitchen again. This weekend the goal was to get the island(except for the top and trim) done, get the plaster and lath all pulled down and cleaned up, so that we are down to the studs. We are now ready for the electricians to come in tomorrow and hookup our new lighting we installed, and also upgrade the electricity to the kitchen. Jim, David, and Levi worked very hard getting all of this done, and we are SO excited to see it start to take shape. Thank you guys for all of your hard work! It was a very messy job, but they did such a good job sealing off the area where they were working with plastic, so it kept whole house from getting to be a dusty mess.
