New Rooms

 Well, blog time again. I haven't figured out yet how to move these pictures to exactly where I want them, or in the order they should be in.
The picture to the left, if this publishes right is the newly painted kitchen. We quite like the look. We are now trying to decide what to put above the cupboards. We are going to lose the bird houses for something more modern. Any ideas? You'll note the pear and the pumpkin, but Mom can't decide if she likes the look.

I threw in the picture to the right with the open cookbook, because it was funny. Mom decided we should have waffles and bacon for supper, and when she started to mix the batter, she couldn't remember all the amounts and etc. Twenty years of making it for all you guys and especially Steve, and we haven't had it hardly since Steve left. They were good though!!!

Above is the corner with the new paint. (picture with no curtains). The before corner has the blue curtains and should be to the right. Same chair of course. Do you think it looks better? We do.
Notice that we also have sanded down and restained and finished all the woodwork around the window and on the half walls.

To the left (I hope) is the couch and the old pink wall. Look how pink it is  next to the couch and new wall below. I guess we didn't quite get the leaves on the wall back in the same place. (Do we live a pretty boring life???). The new paint makes the furniture and picture look a lot better though don't you think?

Wow I snook in a picture of Mom cooking the bacon. She didn't want me to take the picture, but I don't think we take enough pictures of her.










After supper we painted the back entrance (first coat) and put up the new curtains in the living room. No picture of them yet as we are letting the look be soaked up for a while to see how we feel. We got 96 inch curtains, so they go from ceiling to floor. A new look in our house. Actually I think they look great. Picture to follow on next blog.
