The End is in Sight!

We finally let the dude come back in the kitchen with us. The poor dog has been trapped in the back the entire time mom has been gone.
Spencer cheesing it up!
Installing the plates and working on details.
Putting the cabinet doors back up.
Caleb modeling new PJ's next to a newly re-hung door.
Spencer helping Daddy.
The cabinets almost back to their places. Everything is in place except a few doors that needed some TLC.

Update

Caleb asleep at Grandma and Grandpa's on the couch.
Spencer asleep waiting for Mom and Dad. At least he was in jammies.
Dr. Dave
Playing with the cords for the cabinet lighting.
"I Love Being a Princess"
The track light above the kitchen sink.
Even the lazy susan's have been removed and refinished. Everything is black. I hope she is happy with the color she so badly wanted.
Dave and Dave putting the lazy susan back in.
(With flash)
Mom's new track lighting that she wants. It will have to have more put in though. It is just way too dark in the kitchen. (no flash)
We have one whole section that is complete!
The lazy susan door and a close-up of the drawer edges.
The sea of door fronts in the garage as well as the mess of a hutch. It was just too cold and windy to work on it yesterday. Grandma and I will try again on Monday.
We put the door back on here tonight, so all of the fronts are on and mostly finished.
Lighting that is under the cabinets all the way around the room. Dad will have to figure out the electrical for that, but in the meantime they will have black electrical tape keeping the cords up.
