June

We finally started the remodel on our kitchen. Our old kitchen, well, it was... BAD! Not condusive to a family of five. Rick wound up doing 85% of the work himself. He is SOOOOOO HANDY!


The old cabinets coming down



Re-doing the wiring that was in the wall we took down


Wood floors are finished (it was tile)



Rick installing new island

The island being measured for counter tops (we went with quartz)

DJZ went to their first movie in the theater. I could not go with them because I was waiting on the new cabinets to be delivered. My neighbors- Stephanie, Trish and Joy took them. DJZ were very good and enjoyed their first movie theater experience.

We attended cousin Caroline's 2nd birthday party


DJZ trying to get in on the birthday action. You would think they were the ones receiving all the gifts with the excitement they showed with each gift that was opened!
