Our granite guy stopped by earlier this week and measured. Our granite should be delivered this Fri/Monday. He has us on his schedule for next Thur/Friday. Wow! To have a real kitchen, real cabinets and real countertops. I am so excited!
Yesterday, Saturday Aug 1st, Kory installed the 3 uppers we have done. We also got a few more drawers done this week so were able to install them to. It's so fun and exciting to see it all coming together, a little piece at a time. Now I can get rid of that huge white cabinet we have all grown accustomed to.
In the 18 hours we have had the upper cabinets we have discovered how short we all are. Kylie is 8. She hasn't had upper cabinets in 2 years. Making her 6 and in Kindergarten. She's always had a job emptying the dishwasher. I guess before we took the cabinets out she was probably in charge of the silverware. But for quite some time now she can empty the whole dishwasher......until now. The girl can't reach! She has to push a chair up against the counter to reach the cups, plates and such. Brayden who is now 11 can only reach the bottom shelf of the upper cabinet, where the cups are put. He can't reach the next shelf with out a chair either. So he can't reach the bowls and plates. It is going to take some time getting use to our new arrangements. The heavy white cabinet we've been using for the past 2 years held these items. We always kept them on a "lower" shelf so everyone could reach.
