We have moved in!

Here they are. I really wanted to get the place finished before I posted
but there was just no way that was going to happen. We had 2 more
refrigerators delivered today that are not in these photos
as well as a freezer but I will post them later.
We still have some unpacking to do as you can
see but we are getting there! These photos
were also taken at night so again not my best.

You can click on them to enlarge for more detail
and thanks for checking out our new place.
We are VERY proud of it.



These are our signs. We have 2 of them and they are hand
painted on both sides. They were done by BIG EASY SIGNS from
Hot Springs and were worth every penny. They go very well with the
look of the old grocery store. I will post some photos of the signs from the
outside as soon as we get the leaves cleaned up.
I love oak trees and the shade they provide in the
summer but man they create a lot of trash in the fall.



These are the shutters that Jeremy hung so the public
can't see the domestic violence happenning inside...





Here you are looking towards the front door from the back door.

Bathroom sink, not too exciting.
New shower and clean toilet.


I really think that the bathroom is quite a magnificent
improvement.



This is the hand sink and utility sink in the hot kitchen.
Dish machine room is to the left.







This is looking into the hot kitchen through the dish machine room.

this one has really bad lighting....sorry but it is looking into the
hot kitchen from the 3 compartment sink area.
This view is looking to the left when you walk in the front door.
That door in the back with the dots goes to the back yard/dumpster.
For those of you who have seen it, it strangely resembles the old kitchen!


Here you are looking dead center when you walk on the front door.



This is the cold/baking kitchen looking to the right
from the ront door. That empty space is where the vent hood
from the old kitchen will be with a convection oven. I might
actually be able to bake things.

Progress Update

We have gotten the 3 compartment and hand sinks totally installed.  The range and existing vent hood will be working tomorrow.  I am waiting for the new utility sink to arrive and get hooked up and the dish machine is up and running as well.  Tomorrow morning the movers will be here at 
8 a.m. to move all the tables, refrigerators, pots and pans, desks.  Basically everything that is left.  We will move odds and ends throughout the weekend but it looks as if the place will be ready to go to start back to work next week.  I am keeping my fingers crossed.  I have not had a chance to take any photos yet but I will soon.  The hot water heater died so looks like we get to replace that too.  Oh well, better now while the plumbers are at our beck and call.  Check back for updates!

ITS MOVING DAY!!!!!!

The plumbers have arrived to begin moving the kitchen equipment, sinks, tables, etc... down to the new kitchen. I am headed in there now to start taking pictures. Wish us luck. This is a very exciting and scary time for us.
