Happy Tuesday....

Are you ready to start the week on Tuesday??  Just think, it will make Friday come sooner!! LOL!!  I'm now at the age where I'm careful about wishing for Friday's.....they come way too fast.

I think I like the new blogger set up.  Was a little leery of it a few post ago, but actually like the way I can quickly check in on everyone, like.....

Rhonda's mom is home, that is great news!!!.....Ravelly and she's has a giveaway going on....

Laurie has posted about a couple of project she's finished - Yea!!  @ westtexasthreads.blogspot.com

Terry has the binding on her house quilt, see it @  Terry Treasures

Barb is teasing us with some beautiful fabric at bejeweledquilts.blogspot.com

Lea is such an amazing quilter and she does electrical work.....Free Motion Quilting

Steph at Plain Chicken is making a snickers cake and it looks like it's to die for!!!

It was a busy weekend for us, we finally got all of the lights in place and now the window is in and we are now ripping up the floor.  Here's a couple of pictures of our in progress....Here's where we began...it was a waffle morning this day.....

Kid on the prowl for food....surprise!!!!!!!!! (they just love me...)
Once the new kitchen was usable we started demo on the old one and it went something like this....




This is where we are now....


The old kitchen will be part of our living room.  Much larger, more open and next Christmas I'm going to have a 15" Christmas tree!!   ......WAIT!!  I think I began this post talking about not wishing for the future.
Time to go!! No quilts today...but coming very soon!!

thanks for checking on me,
hugs,
joanne

Oh my word....I can't believe you are ripping up a kitchen floor. I am in such awe....I hate my kitchen floor and I could not even consider ripping it up. I can't wait to see what it looks like when it is finished.

Can you please come do my kitchen floor too? Pretty please?

Hugs,
Kelly

That's quite a project, but it's sure going to be nice once it's finished!

That's a pretty tiny tree you are planning for. But I know you really love your new kitchen.
