{the going on}

Things are happening in the Kane House. I have taken some really great pictures on my 'nice camera' but I have not had time to upload. I am hoping to get some time in the next week; I just want to be consistent with this whole blog thing.  Here are some quick pictures from my phone. I have been busy painting and redecorating. My mom and Aunt Debbie are coming tomorrow; I can’t wait to share our fun stories with you guys!

This guys can really get into the whole decorating thing, but he would never admit it! He is actually responsible for finding our new lamps (in the picture above).

We have needed Kitchen chairs for about a year now, we have been using our outdoor furniture. Finally, I decided to buy these unfinished chairs for $25 a chair from Ikea. We painting them 'wet coral' (Valspar). I found this frame in our shed, I painting it the same blue as the console table I posted in a previous post. These colors are fun for now; I know I will probably get sick of them at some point but that’s what paint is for!

Here it is all together! In the back ground you can see the console table with our new lamps as well as our current projects. Mikie is working on a 'mudroom style' bench and we bought two small dressers to refinish. I have so many projects going on right now; remind me not to start any more until these are finished!

Extreme Home Makeover!

Welcome to the house we moved into directly out after our 

honey moon!  I promised pictures so here they are... Check out the sink/stove combo and notice there is no oven. Is this even safe?

So we tried to cook, the stove was super finicky it sometimes would work but sometimes we were not so lucky. I became a a huge fan of crock pot cooking!

Here was our Thanksgiving turkey! I have learned you can cook absolutely everything in a crock pot!



RENOVATION TIME!!!!

Here is a before and after of the kitchen it was finished right before Christmas, what a wonderful christmas present! Everyday this kitchen reminds me I do not have to worry about anything but by prayer and petition present my requests to the LORD! I have never felt more provided for then I do right now in this little house on a mountain a world away from my family. I am reminded daily how good and big God is.

We ended up painting every room in our house and the floors were replaced in the kitchen living and dining room.

Hope you enjoyed our 'extreme home makeover' I know this is old news but I wanted to share it with you all.
