I love”Before and After” pictures. Of anything, really. A makeover, a room redecorated, an out-of-control closet that got organized, whatever.
So it gives me great pleasure to present to you today….
Our newly renovated kitchen!!
Which we had nothing to do with. I didn’t even know what it was going to look like. I spent all last weekend packing up my old kitchen, and then we were gone for the week. We walked in the door on Friday to a big surprise.
Note: Although I miss having our own house, I seriously love all the free (for us)renovations that are going on around here. We go away, and we get a new bathroom, or new flooring, or a new paint job, or a new kitchen. Fortunately for us, Trevor, the maintenance man here at camp, has great taste in colors and flooring and stuff like that, as you can see in these Before and After pictures:

So I spent most of my weekend trying to find a place for everything, and trying to get my kitchen and my life under control. I took no pictures, other than a picture of myself working in my new kitchen.
We did some fun things for Father’s Day, but I took no pictures. I am already regretting my careless behaviour. I think I was just so tired by Sunday that I wasn’t myself.
So it was all about the kitchen this weekend. But I actually woke up this morning, thinking, “I can’t wait to go use my new kitchen!” It is so clean and shiny. And we have a dishwasher. I know that it may be hard to believe, but….I HAVE NEVER LIVED IN A HOUSE WITH A DISHWASHER.
Never in my life. Ben had to teach me how to put the soap in. And now we will live happily ever after.
