Updated kitchen

Warning! Picture overload!!

While my kitchen is faaar from complete and full of imperfections; i decided to go ahead and show you some pictures of the changes. As you can see from these two pictures, my decor was definitely full of country flare! While i still love the deeper country colors and decor, i have been in the mood for something bright and fresh. The color i chose for the walls ended up being brighter than i anticipated, but i decided to go ahead and work with it. Lets just say, its growing on me!

Excuse the coloring in the following pics. Not exactly true color, but you get the idea anyways!

Really liking the tulips! $.79 at Michaels makes me like them even more too!

In love with my new canisters! Love how they look so neat and clean.

Picked up these beauties at a garage sale for $2!

Here she is. The chairs still have to be painted and recovered....i promise i have more than two chairs!

Need to whip up a curtain to hide the little problem area below. It was formerly home to a dishwasher.

Easter

We attempted to snatch a few shots of all of us in our Easter finery, but as you can see; we weren't too successful! O well, guess thats how it goes with little ones. The kiddos were oh so cute in their outfits! I searched and searched for a nice dressy outfit for Caleb and almost gave up. I never knew it would be so hard to find cute clothing and outfits for little guys! Anyhow, it all came together and they were little cuties!

I plan to dress them up again this week and attempt to get some goods pictures of them alone and also together. We'll see how that works out!

Hope you had a blessed Easter celebrating our risen Savior.

This n That

A few weeks ago we took the kids to a ranch rodeo at the fair. Chastity enjoyed seeing the cows and horses and having her 1st experience with cotton candy! Was she ever one sticky mess when she was done!

One cute little cowboy! Oh...and the one below is even cuter! Just sayin!

After the rodeo we took Chastity golfing; along with David and Elizabet. This was also a 1sr for her. She seems to thoroughly enjoy it. Was so cute to watch.

I'm back!

My blog has definitely been suffering from serious neglect lately! I have one too many projects started at the same time which makes me feel as if i can barely keep my head above water half the time! Combine all of that with the daily chores of a housewife/mom....doesn't leave much room for upkeep on a blog. Anyways, i thought i would share a few sneak peaks of what i've been working on lately. I have totally revamped the decor and so far i'm happy with how its turning out. I'm still not too sure on the color of the kitchen walls, but for now i will have to make do as its cheaper that way!

Don't look too close...if you do, you will notice the little tabs. This is only temporary until i can get a real chalkboard for the frame

Transformed this beauty from gold and brassy to a beautiful sparkling white. She now hangs over our dining room table.

Notice the bead board in the background? Makes a world of difference in the room! We have yet to finish all the touch ups on it.

You can kinda get a feel for the direction i'm going in the kitchen by looking at these jars. Its leaning more towards a vintage/cottage look. Thats what seems to be working the best with wall color at least.
