The Kitchen Island

It has been a fun filled and busy last few months!  We had an absolutely wonderful time traveling home to see family and friends over Christmas and Thanksgiving that combined with the holiday hustle and bustle and small spill on the cpu (ops! Sorry Colin) has meant no time for blog post.  So we have a lot to catch up on...Starting with last year for Christmas gift from Colin - a handmade (from old doors) kitchen island!  It actually isn't as late as it seems, it did take him awhile to finish it, it took me a while to decide on a color, it took us awhile to move it and it took me awhile longer to take pics but here it is... 


The raw materials



 Almost done...

 In the kitchen.  
The color in the photos is a little off but it is a real pretty brown with a butcher block top. 
THANKS Colin - I LOVE IT!!!!! Can't wait for this years gift  - a handmade kick-sled so Hudson and I can brave the Wyoming winters and play around in the park in the snow.  Hopefully, I will be posting pics before 2013.
