When we left off in my last post, we had just gotten countertops installed and I cried tears of joy. We had family arriving in a few days for Thanksgiving, so we quickly moved everything back in and cleaned up from renovation so that we could enjoy our time together.

By the time we got to this point, it was mid November and Josh and I both took a week off of work to get it all put back together before we hosted family for Thanksgiving.

They say that the kitchen is the heart of the home and if that’s true, ours was suffering a major cardiac arrest.
