Kitchen Renovation - 4 weeks in

Even though this last week was shortened by the holiday, the crew made a lot of progress.

On Tuesday and Wednesday the electrical and plumbing work was completed and inspections took place.  This even included wired in smoke detectors in our bedrooms that were required by the city.  Gotta love all the permits and rules.  Next came the completion of the removal of the old hardwood from the living room, this was hauled away by a guy who reuses it.  Then on Thursday the temporary wall and the huge beam went up.  

All of these things were great, but really Friday was my favorite.  The old walls were completely removed.  I can finally see what it's going to look like and I'm sooo excited.  

We seem to have crossed over to the actual "build" stage... I feel like all we've seen is demo up until now.  The guys worked on Saturday and we now have sub-floor and the start of dry-wall, we're ready to get this place back up and running!
