a brand new room . . .



Well, Kiara's room is officially all pink!! We painted her room a couple of weekends ago and I finally got curtains up on her windows and on her doorless closet. We also found a bedspread to match on clearance at Wal-mart-o. She is one happy camper. She, of course, wanted it pink. So we did all the walls pink with dark pink flowers stamped on 1 wall. When we did it, Shane kept saying he felt like the pink was going to take over our whole house. Her room is really pink, but with the furniture back in there it is better. We had lots of fun doing it. Now it is on to the boys' room. Their room is bigger, though, with more stuff, so we will see how it goes.









We have also been doing more house stuff. Shane bought a nail gun and got to work on the fence. If he could just get a free weekend or weeknight he could get a lot done. O well, eventually we will find some free time. Shane cleaned up all the weeds again Saturday. With all the rain we are really wishing we would have just planted some grass instead of letting the weeds grow. We have all sorts of plans for this winter including finishing the fence, putting in a sprinkler system, plotting out a garden and whatever else we can afford. I am working like crazy to try and afford to get our house fixed up how we want. Like my dad says, it just takes time and money. You usually have one and not the other. Right now we don't have either, but eventually we will.


This last picture is just because I think my baby is cute : )

What a cute room! What kind of stamps did you use on the walls, and what kind of ink? I love the curtains. You and Elizabeth are so crafty!
