Picking back up!

Well, posting is going to be shoddy until my new Uverse is installed. Ryan and I decided to tell Comcast to go pound sand after only two weeks. So, I'm updating my blog at the local cafe... they have free wireless :) On with the show!


So, the kitchen floor was quite the task. We went back and forth with ceramic, porcelain and natural stone... We really wanted something that would reflect or enhance the greyness of the kitchen... the kitchen has a very cool look, we decided to not go with warm tones, but to keep it a little more modern with the brushed nickel and brushed stainless accents. We FINALLY decided to go with slate. After searching the city of Houston for three days, I found a store called Floor & Decor that sells nothing but flooring. It was awesome. I walked in, and 30 min. later I walked out with 200 Sq Ft of Virginia Blue Slate. So, the floor came up...

Christmas came, and we were still working on the placements of tile, (I discovered that my fiance is a master renovator, that should come in handy in the future!) then we decided to just start laying it down...

In the meantime, our Christmas was very fun, although pretty solitude... but we got great gifts from our family, so after we finished the tile we went shopping and bought some final touches for the kitchen!
