This month, it has been two years since we completed the gut remodel of the kitchen. We still love it.

The month of June is precisely why I wanted to get the Street Side Front Porch project behind us during the actual One Room Challenge. Somehow, every year, I say yes to everything this month, and then it all goes bonkers. Naturally, I do not realize this until I am in the middle of it.…
