Trying To Convince My Parents

Jacob and I went to the swap-meet today... or if you want to be posh, it's called the "OC Marketplace". LoL, so gay. Anyway, We know they have the same old, same old stuff there, but we enjoy holding hands and walking down the aisles. It's funny, everything that you see is everything that's been there for a long time. We stopped by this place with HUGE paintings for a cheap price. We were trying to decide what would look good in the home we are going to be buying :) Your perspective definitely changes when you are making a big decision in life... like getting married, buying a house, having a baby (this one, i wouldn't know, since i'm childless - notice the bitterness? lol).

Anyway we found another place that does kitchen remodeling. They had pictures of kitchens they've worked on and remodeled and I wanted to see them for some ideas for our future kitchen :) Well I rain across this one picture of a kitchen that has the EXACT same layout as my parents'. It's probably in the same neighborhood since I know it's the S&S builder (the builders of this neighborhood). So I took a picture of the picture with my iPhone to bring home to my parents and say, "ohhh, the possibilities!"

Now keep in mind, my parents are the second owners of this house. It was made in the 70's. It was custom-designed by an interior designer, meaning it has ALL the TOP "trends" (LOL!) a 70's home would have. I even thought about writing to The 70's Show and saying, "use our house! it's perfect!".
Oh, and also, my parent's don't spend their money on things like this-- they are smart with their money and spend it on NECESSITIES, not WANTS. LOL but I believe the kitchen NEEDS to be remodeled!

If you've ever thought about time traveling back to the 70's, fasten your seat-belts!
Yes, that is WALLpaper on the CEILING! lol, darn those 70s! Lay off the crack!
