Kitchen Layout in 3D

After imagining the kitchen layout in our heads we wanted to make sure everyone else was seeing what we were and came across Lowe's virtual kitchen designer where you can practically do whatever you want (although it takes a while).  For the most part it's exactly what we want!   

Kitchen Layout

I am by no means an architect (heck, I can't even draw a straight line) so this drawing is not exactly to scale  but it shows what we think we want to do with the layout of the kitchen. Right now the kitchen is a large blank canvas which sounds fantastic but we've been pretty stumped on what to do. Now that we have the layout down we need to have someone come out to the house and tell us how much its going to cost. The next thing on the kitchen checklist is the color scheme and materials that we will be using.  We are now on the hunt for flooring and counter top options. We are definitely open to suggestions if you have any!

Picture Heavy: 1000 Words

I've neglected the blog long enough, I said I'd have an update by the weekend or early this week. Tuesday's still considered early week, isn't it?

It's been a good day, there's squash for a casserole tonight cooling in the kitchen, another half pot of coffee brewing, I swear coffee is slowly becoming a midday addiction and I'm giving my Google account a workout with several simultaneous picture and music uploads. I received my Google Music invite giving me instant access to all my music anywhere with a computer or smartphone, though that could be for another blog altogether. Slowly but surely my Facebook and Twitter are falling by the wayside and I'm going full Google. 

The meat of today's post is giving those reading a taste of what the house has to offer. I hope you enjoy and any advice is welcome. I'll try and take everyone on a virtual tour. 

The yard. Close enough to a white picket fence and I think it comes with 2.5 children.

Ready For The Weekend

It's only Thursday but Paige and I are ready for the weekend. We're taking a trip home for some pictures and measurements of the house as well as celebrating Paige's father's birthday. Stay tuned for updates coming soon: pictures and color/design boards.

Here are a few more (poorly shot) pictures of the house:
