Kitchen Reveal

I am happy to share before and after photos of my kitchen! Yay for bringing it up to the 2000s ;)

Before. Old, outdated, broken appliances. Ugly white cheap cabinets and green (?!) counters. And horrible wallpaper. 

After! Custom brown cabinets with custom pantry (we did not have a pantry at all before). Brand new stainless steel appliances and level 3 granite counters. New stainless steel sink and faucet and glass backsplash. 

The color on the walls is Arid Plains from valspar. 

Lol at the Henry photo bombs :)

Appliances are Fridgadaire. Faucet is Moen. 

We used a local company who did all the work and it was great. 5 months of waiting was with it. 

Our Henry Scare

My Henry. My sweet Henry. 

I will try to keep this as non-graphic as possible. 

Yesterday morning around 9:45, Henry made an odd wheezing sound. He did it once and went back to sleep. Didn't think anything of it. 

I go and ride and made a target run, and come back to Henry making the wheezing again, this time much harder and louder. Cue the freak out. 

From the time I got home and finished my shower after my ride, he had thrown up 6 times. I could not get ready fast enough, called Matt at work (who of course is slammed and can't leave for another 2 hours) as I am racing with Henry to the emergency vet. Wheezing + vomit = no good. 

Matt met us there as soon as he got off (by then I had been there for almost 2 hours waiting for the doctor). It took a while for the vet to figure out what was wrong, and realized that he had gotten a case of kennel cough (I had him vaccinated for this but apparently it isn't always 100% effective) and it was now causing him stress. Poor guy. 

4 hours later, 2 medicines and an RX for a third and we headed home. 

Today he is doing great and more "himself". We had a few wheezing episodes but nothing to the extent of yesterday thank goodness. 

Love that sweet face. 

Man, I love my animals very much. I'm so glad he's ok. Definitely a "low" of this weekend but as long as he's ok that's all that matters. 

Big Dots and Gingham

I love Pinterest for many reasons. One of the main ones is for new ideas on how to wear pieces I already own. 

I found this pin and I love the gingham and big dots combo and I had similar pieces already. 

Sweater, earrings, and gingham shirt are j crew factory, necklace is target, pants are old express and shoes are Vince Camuto via tjmaxx. 

I have been horrible at blogging the past month, I have lots of hauls and my kitchen is done (!!!) so I will post pictures soon. 

Happy Tuesday!
