Ahhhhhh! They arrive...

The cabinets are here.  I have been so nervous about the cabinet color and door style.  I could not wait till they got here today.  The painters arrived at 8:30 to paint the ceiling.  They had to paint the entire ceiling of kitchen and family room since there is no stopping point.  As soon as they were finished the cabinet truck pulled in.  They were unloading drawers and shelves and then finally some pieces that showed the finish.  They look great, but I am still nervous about the cabinet doors. 

They unload the two big pantries, followed by the remaining cabinets.  Next arrives the crown molding which is gorgeous...that is the first piece that shows the chocolate detailing.  Tracy was here to as some question and oversee.  The delivery men tell us thats it and off they go.  I am looking at my soon to be new kitchen and Tracy is looking at a day of work.  Tracy turns to me and asks where are the doors?  I return a blank stare and reach for the phone.  Alas the cabinet maker will bring and install the door once the cabinet bases are installed.  The wait and worry continues.  I feel good about the color, but continue fretting that I picked the right door style.

After lunch with Tracy, his very sweet son (who was his assistant for the day) and Tim the electrician, the work began.  All but 4 base cabinets are in.  There are 3 uppers yet to go in, but they have to wait on granite.  The remaining go in tomorrow and crown molding will go up! 

Photog is en route home...cant wait to see what he thinks!
Kitchen Designer is pleased with his work and sleeping soundly.  (He is a bit irritated that his bed moves everyday.)

Old light will be replaced.
