Kitchen Island

This is my favorite new part of our house...my huge counter top on my new kitchen island! We have yet to stain the island...hopefully we'll get to that this weekend.
Oh, and I love my new wall art in my kitchen too!

Your cake for Chloe's birthday was awesome and you took some beautiful pictures of her birthday party.
