Tomorrow Jonathan and I are going to look for kitchen remodel stuff and I am SO EXCITED! I remember seeing the above scene from "Old School" and laughing because I thought "who honestly spends their Saturdays shopping at Home Depot?" Well, apparently I do!
On Thursday we had our house inspection and everything went really well. We were also able to talk to the current home owners and learn about their ideas and plans for the home. The homeowners have not only taken such great care of their home, but they are also super nice and really helpful, which makes us that more excited to move in on OCT 4th!
My current kitchen crush: Vintage Modern with Marble accents...
What I love most about this kitchen, other than the fact that it is white, and elegant, and modern and beautiful - I love the see-through cabinets with glass! I love white kitchens, but Jonathan really wants a wood colored kitchen. I grew up with wood kitchens, so naturally I am intrigued by the white. Whereas Jonathan grew up with white kitchens and wants something more 'rustic'. As sexist as this comment might sound - Isn't the kitchen the woman's domain? Oh the difficult decisions in life ;) Everyone who we talk to about remodeling our house, warns us that remodeling is one of the most difficult hardships on a relationship. This thought makes me a little nervous...

i have white in my kitchen and i am not even close to getting sick of it. i like it a lot better than wood, but either way is very pretty. I think it definitely has to be something that you both like though. I've never been through a remodel but i can only imagine how stressful it would be. Best of luck! so excited for you guys!

Yeah for home depot. :) If only we could get frequent shopper points there. Remodeling can be a stressor, but the end result will be worth it. Love the picture you found. :) Can't wait to see what you guys do!
