Wow - we really worked hard this weekend (well Bill did most of it) but I am always there to demolish, clean up the messes, run to the dump, get lunch and afternoon coffee, and enlist others to help! The amazing things completed iclude:
- more wiring in the new kitchen
- plumbing hole drilled into the floor for the island sink
- drywall removed from the last remaining wall
- re-organized the basement storage areas
- bought 2 of 3 skylights needed
- 3 skylight holes cut and boxes made in the roof
- roof and gutters cleaned (when you're on the roof you see things need tending to)
- cut fill pieces for all the exposed beams then installed all 5 of them with Sean's help
- went to dinner and then saw Cowboys and Aliens Saturday night
- sold 4 pieces of furniture on Craig's List - made $
- collapsed into bed around 10 on Sunday

Kitchen Cabinets
We ordered the cabinets yesterday. A big chunk o' money! We're going creamy white cabinets with a red/brown island. Bill wants soapstone for the counter. I'm still undecided. The backsplash will be the crackled blue subway tile, similar to these photos.
