Looking at islands...not vacation spots!
Tomorrow Paul and I are heading out to look at islands for our kitchen. We renovated our kitchen a few months ago, and I just love my new cupboards. Well I also moved my kitchen table into our dining room, which I have never used before. It is so much more functional this way, but it has left a big open spot in out kitchen. I need to fill that spot and we kinda figured maybe an island with some seating might work well, then if the kids are just grabbing a quick bite to eat they can sit at the island. I have been looking at ideas, there are so many types. Hopefully tomorrow I can narrow down my options and come up with an idea. Our basement is so close to being finished, it looks amazing. When we first started some people thought we were taking living space away once we put a bedroom down there. In fact, the basement space is much bigger and the layout is so much better. We are looking at possibly putting a dry bar down there too..maybe a microwave and a bar fridge, some cupboards and a small bar table with stools. So many ideas, its exciting but alot of work. Kailey should be in her new room by June, she would like to have a "new room christening party". Maybe for graduation, we could tie two things in together a graduation sleepover and a new room christening!! Sounds perfect! We are going dress shopping in the states for grad dresses, i am sure it will be a great weekend. I am looking forward to it, the group of girls and mom's are the best, we always have lots of fun! They are some of the ringette girls, the nice thing is..we are use to spending weekends together in hotel rooms.Well, I am a bit lost for words tonight. I hope all of you are well and are getting ready for summer time!!
