Remodeling the Kitchen

We FINALLY had the opportunity to get our floors fixed after the water damage from months ago. We also decided to go ahead and update to granite countertops and a more modern tile backsplash in hopes that this will help our house sell faster in a few months when we put it on the market! Overall, the work went really smoothly and only took about a week, but the house was a disaster!! I'm glad we finally got it all taken care of before the baby, and we've managed to get everything back in place so we can function in our house again!

Here are a few "before" pictures:







And here's what it looks like now:






You can't really tell a difference on the floors, since we just replaced the wood with pretty much the same thing. The countertops and backsplash, though, look completely different! I had hated that white tile with cornucopias on it since we had moved in, so I am thrilled to have what we have now! We also had the new sink remounted underneath the granite, which also looks really good, and with the new baseboards all around the new floors, the dogs' damages are gone!

We are really pleased with how it all turned out. Now we just have to keep it clean and in good shape for when we are ready to sell the house! :-)
