We have working appliances!

Exactly seven weeks after we tore out our old kitchen, I have a functioning kitchen again! Nate and I primered (is that a word?!) and painted two coats of paint ("tealight") on Thursday and Friday. I really like the color. You can't tell what it is in these pictures because we still don't have our lighting done. It's a basically a creamy yellowish color.

My dad came up on Friday night (while I was hanging out with my college roommates and having SO MUCH FUN!). He and Nate got the appliances in, put the backsplash and valence up, and did multiple other jobs. There's still a lot to be done (including choosing and installing flooring), but most of the major things are finished. As long as Nate wired the light cans correctly, that shouldn't take too long. Time will tell...
