Guess what my in-laws got us for a wedding present...OMG NOW WITH PICS.
A NEW KITCHEN!!!!! OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!
I feel like I am on Extreme Makeover Home Edition! All of the work should be done tomorrow! I feel like I'm squatting in someone else's house...LOL. Really
... I am trying to post pics but they are huge.
My FIL's are the most generous people. MY FH bought this house in 1998 and it had an original kitchen built in 1951 with knotty pine cabinets and harvest gold appliances... oh, and chicken wire wallpaper...lol. We want to sell the house and start over (because he used to live here with his ex) but the kitchen was an eye-sore and the plumbing was crumbling.
MY FIL is the best. He designed it, a cousin installed it and last week my 2 BIL's flew in early for Thanksgiving and BUILT US A 9' X 16' DECK!!!
I'm so overwhelmed when I look at it I cry.
These are the before pics... it actually looks better than in person

And here's our new kitchen...
Another 'Karp Kitchen' my FIL. I am so lucky.
Seriously, I was crying. Seven years ago my Dad had a very severe stroke. I spent every day by his side and never thought such good things would be happening to me for me because I always concentrated on everyone else.
Can you even believe it's the same house?
It doesn't feel like it. I feel like I've broken into someone else's.... I have INSTANT HOT!!!! Wow, I must be old... oh, and pot drawers.
Check out the pantry where that old table used to be

Yes, both of us and are families have been through a lot. My FH's first wife was very mentally imbalanced and caused a lot of pain within the family. I went through a lot with the death of my mom at a young age and my Dad's stroke and living with and caring for him for seven years. FH, myself, and both of our families are overjoyed that we are all experiencing a happy and healthy family relationship with very little ridiculous drama.
It's a little strange to have good things happening... finally my time has come and I am so grateful to them.

Wow, what wonderful inlaws!!! Congrats!
As for the pictures, try creating a liw album (My Wedding --> Photo Albums). You can almost always put a large picture into that and then just add the pics here as 'Insert Web Image' with the .jpg address of the album pic.
That was a lot of rambling - let me know if something didn't make sense.
