We Have a Kitchen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looky Here!!!!!!!!! This is what I walked into my house & saw on Friday morning! When I had to quit on Thursday to leave for volleyball Mel had the base cabinets almost in - but he got them all in place & hung yet Thursday afternoon before left! What a wonderful surprise for me on Friday morning!!!
The cabinets were made by Don's Custom Cabinets out of Rapid City & they seem to have done a wonderful job! We are very happy with the finished project! This is the view from the dining room - looking southeast. The big hole is of course where the frig will go - that littler hole is for my new dishwasher! I've never had one of those before so it will be great!!!
Here you can see the sinks - they are under mounted corion (sp?) sinks, which I think I will love! This shot is taken from by the stove & looking south. The cabinets are oak & stained an Early American color - just like all my trim & doors.
This is a shot of the north wall where the stove will go with the microwave above it on the wall. To the stove's left is a cupboard with pull-out shelves for the pots & pans - to the right is the tall thin cookie sheet cupboard.
Each of the base corner cupboards have the lazy susans in them. The bottom shelf of the 2 corner upper cupboards also have one. Right to the right of the sink is a double garbage pull-out cupboard.
This is my small pantry right in the kitchen - right to the left of the frig. The bottom 2/3 of it has pull-out shelves & the top few are stationary.
I have a garage in one corner - probably should have had one made for each corner with all my stuff!!!
And this is our island - it has drawers on the side facing the sink & cupboards on the south & west sides. The center is cupboard height & in an "L" shape on top is a raised section. I really like the island too. In fact, I just LOVE my whole new kitchen!!!! FUN, FUN, FUN!!!
