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

I'll try to resize these pics.

WOW! That is so amazing and extremely generous! They must be really terrific people and feel that their son is marrying someone just as special in return! Congratulations on your new kitchen!

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
