Yaaayy!   The cabinets were roughed in yesterday and the lead carpenter and I spent a while looking at the arrangements.  We made some minor moves of lower cabinets, I'm happy with the top ones.  I'm especially happy with the cabinet in the second picture on the top right corner.  They have ordered a special glass for the cabinet.  The lower cabinets on the island open from both sides.   In the third picture the pantry in the back left will have slide out shelves, wow.  The drawers and doors have slow closing mechanisms that keep them from banging.  These cabinets are bigger than the old cabinets and since I've gotten rid of lots of stuff, I shouldn't have any problem storing everything.   In the bottom picture on the left is a door, that is going in the bathroom so all the old brown doors will be gone.  Then a set of cabinets will go across the top and the new refrigerator and microwave will be on that wall. By the end of the week they should order the new granite counter top and then that should be a one day install next week - fingers crossed.
