kitchen remodel update

This should give you a little better idea of what we are doing in the kitchen. Marty is building the wall that the bar will sit on. We will have a 42" high bar on the dining room side and a 36" high counter top on the kitchen side. The cabinets that use to be part of the island in the middle of my old kitchen now will be against the new 1/2 wall under the new counter top where it is placed in these pictures.
Marty hung sheetrock and then he will build the form for the concrete bar.

He will put sheet rock on the side here to. we will finish the look with a veneer that matches the wall surrounding the fireplace in the dining room.
This is approximately how the cabinets will look. this remodel has made my house seem huge already. I love how much brighter and open everything is. It already feels great!! I am so excited for the next step!
Here is a picture I got on the internet that shows an idea of how the counter and bar will look> not the colors just design.
