The diner is closing

As fun as this kitchen is to some...it's always been a eye sore to me! I've been pulling out pages of different kitchens from my 'Better Homes and Gardens' magazine for a couple of years now just dreaming of what I could have. Three years of looking at this pink stove and sink knowing that it would be awhile before I could change it drove me crazy. I've already repainted the walls that use to be light green just to tone down the craziness. Sorry, I am not trying to offend anyone else's taste, but this is just not my style! I've even put in applications to a couple of TV shows to make over my kitchen! Talk about getting desperate, but I guess there's worse out there because I haven't gotten word back from any of them.
I was so excited to finally get the okay from Daniel to make some changes to our 50's diner kitchen!! We've recently spent a couple of days pricing and looking for what we wanted. I never knew how many options I had and for those who know me...I am not too good at making final decisions. I know what I like, but then you have to make sure that it all looks good together. One of the biggest thrills for Daniel and I is that we will finally have a dishwasher!!! Yahoo!! We are both so excited for that! We had to order it so that has slowed the process down a bit but we sure are ready to say good-bye to the sink, counter tops, and floor!! Unfortunately, we don't quite have enough to get the stove we want, but that will be next! If you know anyone who is willing to pay anything for this stove please let me know!! (try not to laugh at the pictures!)

Our crazy pink stove
The dishwasher will be on this side of the sink
NO MORE PINK SINK OR STRAINER ON THE COUNTER!
The big round counter top is going too to create more space.
