#1 The before pics...

It's been a while since I have lived through a major renovation.  A long while.  They say if a woman remembered how painful giving birth was, she would never give birth again.  The same goes for a renovation.

It's not that the house was horrible.  It was just dated.   I was going to just do a minor redo of the cabinet faces and maybe a new stove.  Um yeah...that didnt happen.

Here it was before.
