A wonderful visit and painted kitchen cabinets.

I hope everyone is enjoying your Memorial Day weekend and remembering the true reason that we
are celebrating Memorial Day. It is a day to remember our men and women of the armed forces that
have given their lives so that we can live in freedom in this wonderful country!
  My husband has an uncle that came for a visit from Washington State, we had a cookout and
enjoyed laughing and talking with him. His name is Nathan Everett, he has written several books and is going to have another book published this summer. He writes alot of mysteries.

There are many things I would love to do to our house, but with two properties that we take care of
we can't do any extensive remodeling at this time.
 So my remodeling usually consists of painting.
 I have painted my kitchen cabinets 3 times in the last several years, the last time I painted them
I painted them black. I liked the black, but was ready for something different. So I decided to paint them "Homestead Resort Olive". I was going to do the painting by myself but my hubby said no way, was he going to let me do it all by myself. He told me that Mother's Day wasn't over yet and that
he was going to continue with the celebration! I love that man! Tomorrow we will have a small
cookout with our kids and grandkids and make homemade ice cream with an old woodend crank ice cream maker.
My kitchen is small and L-shaped so I have to take several photo's so that you can see the whole kitchen.

This is when I tried to distress my cabinets and before our new flooring.

I had to take these photo's from FB, since I lost all of my photo's on my computer awhile back.

Love the green, it is valspar paint, called "Homestead Resort Olive"

Love my bunting flag over my sink.

My kitchen is small but I love my big kitchen sink.

Love decorating my hoosier for the different holidays.
