Welcome to our Mayhem! We have been Remodeling like CRAZY!
Are you ready to party or have guests over? We are not! 
This is our dining room! (No dining table to dine on!)
Our living room without a place to sit! We did remove the yucky paneling! It is GONE baby!
So is the carpet! 
Take a look at the bar! It has electricity!
See it closer! Notice the power Sonic Drink!
Remember what it used to look like…
Now this! Whohoo!
Before: Crazy Closed-in Wall
Now an Open Bar
Notice no more florescent lights…just recessed.
Can’t wait to show you what goes here!
My Pantry! (I keep calling it a closet.) I’m so going to hide in there from the kids!
We even put plugs in there to charge flashlights and a special place for the toaster. The toaster will never be seen unless you go into the pantry!
The other part of the pantry.
My scriptural oven cubby hole.
No more back-splash.
No more headers!
No more ugly oven hood.
No more wall and only 1/2 a cabinet. 
No worries…all the cabinets are coming down. My hubs has built all new custom cabinets (and I helped.) 
Another view of the bar. Don’t you wish you had a wheel-barrel in your kitchen? I heard it is the new fad!
This is where a decorative shelf will go. I love it!
My guest room. It is so bad. Luckily, no one is staying with us at the moment.
There would be no place for them to lay their head.
I guess if we were to have guests they could just reach over and get themselves a can of beans if they got hungry in the middle of the night. We supply a can opener and everything! We cater to our guests like that!

As one who has “been there, done that” I can relate to the mess than ensues…and the chaos…and the complete JOY when you’re finally finished! lol
Hang in there, looking good! Can’t wait to see the finished space!
How exciting… I love the changes you are making!

I scratched my monitor on your photos. They smelled like PROGRESS. 🙂
I am enjoying watching the progress in your kitchen.
You are very brave! I am a hardcore diy’er, but I am also a kitchen designer & know how difficult it is for homeowners to live through this when someone else is doing the installation! You will be very proud when it is all finished, though & can’t wait to see the final photos!!! Definitely keep everyone updated with photos of your progress!
Would do it/Have done it. It is coming along beautifully! I love everything from the removal of the soffit to the Super Sonic drink. I was planning to come for a visit, but it looks like I’ll have to wait. 🙂 Lisa~
