This is the new look in the kitchen-vanilla! I plan to have red accessories to liven it up.
The new lights really brighten up the room.
The greenhouse window is gone-but the plants remain.
You can get a better look at the cabinets here-notice the crown molding.
You can see the distressing better in this picture-a bit more distressing than I would have liked, but I think it stands out more because there is nothing else to draw the eye. It won't be so prominent when the walls are painted and the room is decorated. So tell us what you think.

This is the living room aka Dad's workshop. The tools and supplies are here 24/7. Note the new window on the east side of the room. The open space next to the window is going to be wood storage with a door to the outside-like the storage we had next to the fireplace in our Kingsburg house.

This is the view from the front door. I love the recessed lights! Notice the new wall separating the living room from the dining room and the bump out for the stove. The boxes in the corner are glass brick for the master bathroom.
The new wall in the dining room
These are the new french doors replacing the window. It will make the deck so much more usable. Dad installed a ceiling fan out there already-we just need to patch the deck and clear off the building materials! The refrigerator was moved in here while the cabinets were painted. It will go back in the kitchen after the walls are textured and painted.

Well, it's about time we posted some pictures of the changes in the house-enjoy and let us know what you think.
