Kitchen cabinets....take two!

The installation guys returned today to complete the cabinets. They installed the island and secured it to our tile (albeit 4" off where we wanted them to put it- it's closer to the far wall than we preferred, but on the bright side that gives us more cooking room). They drilled all of the holes and secured the door and drawer pulls too...on the undamaged doors that is. They put in an order for about 8 new doors to replace those that are the wrong stain color (1), have splotchy stain (2), or were dinged in delivery (5). Behold the kitchen cabinets and island:
And another view:
Here's me doing a poor charade of a fridge:
They'll return in a few weeks to put "skins" on the sides of the freestanding wall cabinet (our sales guy forgot to order those), replace the doors and afix the remaining knobs and pulls. And put the corbels on the island (presumably once the countertop is on).

Thanks Jens! I think the ceiling adds a unique touch to the room and was not THAT hard to install!
