Done, finally!

We spent most of the three day weekend painting the kitchen trim, unpacking the kitchen, and trying to get the house back on order. We've gotten the mudroom, dining room and kitchen in order, but have more cleaning to do and need to spend some time getting the living room back in order.

All in all, I think we're pretty happy with the result. We finished up just short of 6 weeks.

We've got a few things to buy or replace that don't work as well with the kitchen, but you can see the basic jist of things.

Here are some before and after pictures:

It's amazing how different the space feels. We actually don't have enough stuff to put in the cabinets. The pantry is almost totally empty and the rest of the cabinets are only half full or so.

Thanks to all of our friends that graciously had us over for dinner over the last few weeks and lent us time and gear to get this done.
