As you can see, the sheetrock is up in the "fridge room" (we are taking nominations to pick the new name for the 'area' in which the fridge used to reside.) It's also up to the left in this picture, where our microwave used to be. Next step is the pantry area to right of this frame. Then we'll work our way around the rest of the room. Doesn't it look big without the wall there? Click this picture for more pics.
Almost gone. It is now, just didnt get a updated picture of it.
Added insulation the other day, and also roughed in the electrical outlets for this section of the kitchen. We added insulation here because I would guess a lot of warm air escapes up the walls into the stairwell behind it. We'd rather not let that happen.
Katie was working overtime this weekend cleaning up the quarter inch layer of dust that settled on every flat surface of our house after the kitchen exploded.
Just kidding. No other inhabitants in this house. Here's the side of the kitchen without the cabinets, drawers, and little counter. You'll notice that the piece of wall that used to be around the doorway into the area affectionatly known as the fridge room is no longer present. You'll also notice that yet again Tim's doing the work. I think that that first swing photo that we saw earlier in the blog was purely ceremonial much like the first pitch at a baseball game. Am I being to harsh? I'm kidding of course. Brad did do lots of work, too.
Here's Tim helping Brad to get rid of the wall behind where the cabinets were. Although I guess that since Brad spent the whole morning taking photos of the progress we should say "Here's Tim taking the kitchen apart so we can have it redone."
Let the remodel begin! Here's Brad taking a whack at the cabinet door in the kitchen. This isn't really how they took this part of the kitchen out. As it turns out, my suggestion of using a screwdriver to remove the doors from thier hinges is a far more efficient way to take apart a kitchen.
