Kitchen Remodel:: Days 4-7

I had last week off from work so I spent the better part of my vacation scraping the old popcorn texture off the ceilings and finishing the new drywall, messy work but it turned out nice. I should be ready to start painting next weekend.

Kitchen Remodel:: Days 1-3

Last spring we had some plans drawn up for a small addition and remodel of our kitchen, but then realized that it wasn't in the cards at the time. So we've decided to do the remodel in stages, starting with removing the wall between our kitchen and dining room, to open up the kitchen and add some needed counter space where people can sit. I plan on doing the majority of the finish work myself, but we had some pros over the past few days to install 4 LVL beams flush with the ceiling to support the second level. Below are some pictures of what we've accomplished so far:

The new cabinet on the end will hold a microwave and also support one end of the countertop for the bar.
