AFTER!!!!!
We spent the past couple of weekends, doing some home improvements. We(mostly Earle while I was watching the boys and keeping Ben from demolishing our house with his own paintwork ) painted the living room and kitchen, and then last weekend, Earle, Lorie, and I tiled the back splash in our kitchen...we think it turned out pretty good. We have been working on our kitchen slowly since we moved here doing one thing at a time. I still may paint our cabinets, but for now, we are at a good stopping place. Here are some before and after shots! Thank you Lorie for helping us! And, to anyone that has never tiled anything...it is so easy! We were shocked. Lowes was going to charge us $700.00 extra to install the back splash, so we said, no thanks and did it ourselves. Thank you, Angela Grace, for making me take the before pictures to e-mail you...even though I was not sure I wanted anyone to see until we had finished! The stove in the before pics was actually one we had to buy, but there was an old one there when we got here.
It is hard to do projects with such young and curious kiddos...I think next time, maybe we will get a babysitter!
Looks great, I'm impressed!!
