Making Progress

After what seems like forever, we're making some progress in the kitchen.  We hired a carpenter to come in and finish off the window opening that leads into the rec. room.

These are pictures from Day 1.

This is a view from the kitchen into the rec. room.  He framed it out and will put skill out the rest of the walls and replace a cabinet.

Below is the view from the rec room/laundry room.  You can see where we took out another row of bricks on each side to open up the space a little more.

Day 2

You can see he dry walled the opening and finished it off with a nice edge on the kitchen side.

Here's the rec room side.  He build in a little counter area at the base of the window so it matches up with the existing counter top.

I'm loving it.
