The girl's room BEFORE







I have been meaning to post this for quite some time...like, last year! The girl's room was the most unfinished room in the house when we bought it, but it was also the biggest! So we decided to make it into "girl land"-a place to keep all of their girly STUFF. I really wanted the beds to be built into the wall, but we had to get creative with the lay-out. We came up with this corner construction and I love it! Tyler is a genius. I dream it, and he achieves it:) We built walls, moved walls, built "cubbys" and textured, textured, sanded, and textured. 6 long months later....we finished. Wow...not what I had originally planned, but worth it.

Halloween







We had a fun Halloween! I have to say it is one of my very favorite Holidays, even though I'm not into the scary part of it, I love fall and I love the festivities. The scariest decoration I own; are some wooden spiders...yea. I know I'm lame. We had a few friends over to kick off the Holiday and played some way cheesy games, but the food was great and the company was even better. We did all of our family traditional stuff; carved the pumpkins, roasted the seeds, drank the cider, ate the candy...and then ate more candy...
The girls REALLY wanted to be princesses this year, despite my pleadings to do something "original". Oh well, they make cute princesses. Plus I didn't have to buy costumes because we are well supplied with "princess stuff".
