UPDATE!

I can't believe I have left everyone hanging for so long- lol...... We completed this project in June. Well the granite was installed in late April but the island top was not complete until June. These pictures are right after installation so there are still tools and supplies laying around and not a single accessory. Geez, I'd like to take some pictures right now- but its a MESS:)

We came home from a vacation 2 weeks ago to a MESS. Our 2nd Floor Master Bedroom toilet overflowed and ran all the W.H.O.L.E. time!!! So it destroyed the bathroom, bedroom, hall, formal living room on the main level and then down to the basement family room and guest room- Yuck! We have since had walls, celilings and floors ripped out, but not a single thing replaced yet..... (more on that soon..) We are living in half a house and things from the destroyed rooms are piled up in the usable rooms so everything is a huge Mess!! I am remaining positive - I'm Getting a mini house Remodel:) But seriously, lesson learned, turn off you water when you leave your casa.....

So here are a few pictures of the kitchen that include the tumbled tile backsplash that my husband installed, the granite countertops, and then the HIGHLIGHT, our gorgeous 2inch thick Maple island that my hubsband made and installed. He also used old ballisters from an old building my parents recently sold for the legs- what would I do without him???
