When I was gone in Texas this summer, Josh surprised me for my birthday (and our 5th anniversary) with new counter tops. They are absolutely beautiful. I had no idea he was doing this.
This picture is when we first looked at the house before we bought it. You can see that the counter/blacksplash was a small white tile. The counter space is quite small. He had the door to the downstairs bedroom moved over a few feet so the new cabinets would fit and for more counter top space.
This is what I came home to. The install date for the granite was 08/15/08. Plywood isn't the easiest thing to clean or wipe off! You can also see in the side of this one the new additional cabinets.
This is the front view of the new cabinets.
The day before the counter was installed, we had to take everything off and take the sink out. You can see how far over the door frame is now.
TA-DAA!!!!!!!!!!!! The pictures of course do NOT do the counters justice.
There is so much space here. Before, the counters only went to right behind the sink.
Josh has changed out the old light plugs to black with chrome face plates. He just has a little bit more wiring for the light switch.
Incredibly deep sink. I had an entire load of dishes just on one side. Its crazy how deep they both are.
Josh, they are beautiful! Thank you for the great surprise. I love you!!!
