Kitchen Remodel and Anniversary

I guess you could say that we are officially finished.  Though I need to put up the backsplash and we are going to tile the front entry.  Hopefully, these things should get done before the end of the year.

In addition to the kitchen, we put new flooring in the dining room and took about 8 inches off the front entry wall.  We can now see from the kitchen into the front room.

The laundry closet that we removed is now a peninsula/bar that is 9.5 feet long.  The sink and dishwasher are also here.

Looking toward the dining room from the computer area.

Island area.

The new laundry room, where the old kitchen used to be.
We are very happy with the way it turned out.  It is so much more functional and I love cooking again.  Pat has already planned a couple of parties and after Oregon States whipping of USC, we are looking forward to our annual Civil War Party.

We also had an anniversary of sorts this past week.  9/25 was Morgan's diagnosis date.  3 years.  Obviously I have mixed emotions.  100 years ago he wouldn't be here, but we would all rather that there was a cure.  The past couple of weeks has been difficult trying to get his glucose back in range.  Must be another growth spurt on its way because his insulin needs have almost doubled again, even with running cross country.
