New kitchen bar and bar stools

My new used bar stools that I got on Craig's list. I have been looking for a long time for this very bar stool and found them last weekend in Houston. We happened to be in the area and we stuffed them into my car. They were a greenish color, but I love red. So with a couple of coats of paint I have two beautiful fun new bar stools. Storage on one side with a old red frame and cute little cherry plates.
My guy built a new bar for our kitchen. Cookbooks on one end with a old window as the door.

We are still seeing a few hummingbirds

She has been going back and fourth eating from our new bird feeder. We love to watch the birds in our back yard.

A mama bird we have been watching from our deck. She has been taking good care of her babies.
