Kitchen Remodel, part 3

Just a few quick pictures of the work we did yesterday.
We got the walls all sanded and painted, then we decided at 9pm that we could put the wall cabinets in. Here is the north wall.
And the south wall. We put them really high, too. The old kitchen the cabinets were so low that I could barely put anything under them. NOW I won't have that problem. Since most of the Essary men are about 6'4" on average, we call this "Essary Height". LOL!

Even Drew decided he could do some of this work!

The floor guys are here now putting in the new linolium in the kitchen and the laundry room. No more Harvest Gold! I know Jeff will want to put in the base cabinets as soon as he can. But alas, he went to Shelby's basketball tourney in House and found himself having to coach the 5th-6th grade boys team! LOL!

I'm reliving our remodels!! We have "Justin height" cabinets etc. He's 6'7" so we have an adjustable shower head, all our cabinets go up to the ceiling and our bathroom cabinets are extra tall (and we have the "taller" toilets--2 inches taller). Even my mom at 5'4" likes her extra tall bathroom cabinets. It's way nice. Oh and keep Drew away from the tools....Jonah thinks he's a contractor and has put a zillion dents in our new walls from "hammering" with a plastic hammer!

Buck: thanks! Remodeling is taking a toll though. I think it will probably be at least a year before we tackle the next project: Jeff's bathroom (which I HATE and refuse to shower in).

Melissa: Yep, these tall guys have to have everything there way! LOL! At 5'7", I'm about the tallest in my family and I can't come near competing with these guys! Shelby will soon be taller than me. She is 10 and about 5' already.
