Kitchen Remodel Day 3 *edited*

Today is building day! The carpenters are here! They are installing the cabinets and building the island. The first thing they did was to bring all the cabinets into the kitchen. Our nice open kitchen is now cluttered!The first installation was the wall cabinets! It looks like it was always meant to be there!Next they installed the island cabinets. You can see that the dishwasher is going in the middle.Now they are building the part where the wine refrigerator is going. I'm putting Little Lion down for a nap. I can't wait to see what the final form of the island will look like! Plus it'll give me a sense of what the new kitchen will look like in person! Check back later for final pictures of the day.....I'm thinking they won't be here until 10 :)

OK So the carpenter's finished the *island*.
Now you must have noticed I put ******* around island! The reason is because there has been a small :) communication problem. My lovely main guy from Ameritiles, Jay, thought I wanted it looking more table like and he was putting granite legs under the granite to hold up the rest of the granite. So basically what you saw above would be all there was underneath the island. To me, I thought it looked like a dining room table instead of an island. I have always wanted it to be more islandy and just have overhang for barstools. SOOOO it puts us a bit behind, but it'll be ok. The carpenters are coming back to add more wood to close off the bottom. You can see the pencil markings of where the wood will be going. Jay has been very courteous to my needs (even though my granite is a bit smaller than I would like, thanks to mother nature ;). Nonetheless, he is working hard to make me happy ;) I'm sure the island will be wonderful!
