The Kitchen Remodel, Part 2

I was hoping that by this date I would have been posting final photos of the progress, but here we are and it hasn't changed much.  The small amount it has changed is significant, though.

We have been waiting, spinning our wheels for almost 2 weeks, waiting for the techs to come move our gas line so we could continue tiling the backsplash.  I have fussed over the plaster and paint a lot, but we were at a standstill on everything else. 

In the mean time, we did finish a project that I've been meaning to do for some time: plumbing hot water into the laundry room.  Kaylee now has hot water for washing for the first time in 4 years!  So it wasn't a complete waste.

This machine had never known the joy of a hot bath, but that has all been made right, now. ;)

Anyhow, the gas guys came last night to drop off their tools, then spent all day today (8:30am-6:30 pm, minus a 2 hour lunch break) changing the gas line.  Now we no longer have an ugly yellow-orange pipe in our kitchen!

Unfortunately, my dad and mom leave on Friday, so we only have two days left to work together.  I was hoping we could finish it and have a week to sit around or find something fun to do.  Oh well, it's good to work, too.

Here's how it looks tonight:

It's almost there!
