I am in L-O-V-E

 Yes, I am in Love with my husband and my "new" kitchen.  Awhile back I showed you the evolving of the kitchen here, from dirty to clean, to painted cabinets, to new counter and floor, well I disliked the green walls with the new look.  Still loved the color but it was not jiving anymore and I was dying to have yellow.  My all time favorite color.    So here is the "new" look.   

 Thanks to my wonderful Mother for making my curtains,  they are so cute.  This picture does not do them justice,  I will have to take another one and post for you all to see  the cuteness.   Anyway I ordered my fabric from Fabric.com,  very reasonably priced fabric.  The idea for the curtains came from Pinterest,  love this kitchen. 

 My sweetheart brought me some old barn windows they were throwing out and wouldn't you know a few coats of paint and vinyl letters and WOW I have a very cheap decoration.  I have two more windows in the basement just waiting for me to transform them.

 Don't you just love the lighter wall color,  I know I do.  The decorating did not cost much mostly I just pulled things from the decoration closet and found new homes for it.  I am loving the airy, cottage look so much,  it sure makes having to spend time in the kitchen more enjoyable.

 The coffee corner.  Don't you just love the dotted mugs?  A birthday gift from my brother and soon to be sister in law, the mugs make drinking your coffee so fun.

And the last little counter, with it simple decorations.    Hope you enjoyed seeing the finished (for now) kitchen,  I say for now because with people like me you never know what I might change next. 

Easter at our house

 As you can tell Piper really enjoyed dying eggs. 

 The Easter bunny came to help me make jello and what a cute bunny it was.

 Piper was thrilled with her Easter basket and the basket is for her trike, she is happy about that.  But we all know Easter is not all about the bunny, eggs or candy, no it is about a Man who gave his life for you and me, that we may have our sins forgiven and live with him forever.  Thank you Jesus for your gift to us.  If you ask Piper "what is Easter about?"  She will tell you "God's son, who died on the cross for us."  So glad my little girl is learning about Jesus.

 Here are a few photos we snapped when we go home from church, not bad for using a tripod and timer for some of them. 

 Love my little family.

I hope all of you had a wonderful Easter day wherever you may have been.

Our Smiling Faces!

 Pretty girl, no other words necessary.

 Happy smiles, heading for a overnight getaway.  I love that boy!

 Fun in the sun and sand.

Lunch on the patio, love that new patio.

The month of March at our house!

 March started out with me wondering if I was crazy for starting another painting project but now that it is finished I love it.  Photo's to come.   The other day my Mom asked Piper "Do you like to paint?"  Piper replied "No, my Mommy does."  SMILE-she knows me well.

 This month we also added to our family, this sweet guy just showed up one day and now thinks he belongs.  We have named him Prince Harry,  we all love him (even Eric, though he will not admit it).

 After trying to drive her car around outside with sandals on(they were not working very well), Piper came running inside and found her Pink John Deere boots and said "these will work much better".  Love that little girl.

 Spring is here,  we have been enjoying warmer than normal temps for March.  Love it!

And last but not least my Mom came for her annual spring visit.  We had so much fun, making curtains, prettying up the house and of course shopping  and enjoying cups of coffee together.  I Love my Mom.  Thanks for coming to see us NeeNee, can't wait until you come back and bring Grumpy.   
   

Finished Object...Welcome

I am loving having a nice front door to hang wreaths on.  I got the basic idea for this wreath from Pinterest and then just made it my on. Check out my "Door Love" board, I have pinned a lot of great door decoration ideas.(click on the Pinterest link above).   I also found the flower tutorial on there, they were extremely easy to make (will be making more.)  Well that is all for my finished object, I am linking up to the Charitree for her Finished Object Friday Party, check out they yummy looking cake she made.  :)

More Randomness

The work on our porch is coming along great. The porch and the roofing job would go a lot quicker if snow would not interrupt.

Making homemade finger paint, holding a baby, cutting up carrots for supper and wearing a spotted t-shirt cause I was about to tackle a painting project(I AM SUPER MOM!).

My two Princesses Piper and Payton.
