Kristina's Arena competition and more...



This video is of Kristina's competition yesterday. She did so good. In the 5 areas that she competed in she ribboned in each. 3 - 3rd places, 1 - 4th place and 1 - 5th place. Congratulations Kristina!

Today found us having more thunderstorms in the afternoon. We're getting some really tremendously active storms. Lots of lightening that is striking close to the house and sends everyone scampering for cover. I took this picture prior to the lightening starting. Looks like a turtle head coming out of the clouds.

With the storm today I decided that it was time to paint the kitchen. I've been threatening this paint job for about 2 years now. The kitchen is now just about done and the breakfast room is still left to do, but I'll get it done in the next couple of days for sure.

As usual my pictures don't show the true color. This color is called: Valspar's "Golden Straw".

I actually used this color on one of the walls in the entry hallway. I love it. A beautiful gold. It also coordinates nicely with the border paper that I have.

Way to go Kristina!

I really like that paint color. It looks great with the border and cabinets.
