New Room!

Eryn and Kaitlyn have been asking (that is, begging) to have their own rooms for a very long time. We just didn't have the room to spare... until now. Not that we give in to begging, but seriously, they were crammed into a little room, and often had issues with keeping it clean (too much stuff for such a small space). Plus the bunkbed thing was getting old! Jared's sister, who has lived with us for the past two years, just got married, so we decided to move Eryn into that room. She picked out fun bed stuff from Ikea, then we chose three colors from that for paint. We decided to do stripes. I love painting. Somehow I always manage to mess something up, or even step in the paint at some point, but this time things actually went quite smoothly. When I started painting the pink, Eryn started having second thoughts:

 "I'm not really a 'pink' person, mom."

"Yes, I know that Eryn, but if you remember correctly... you chose the colors. Plus I've already started so it's too late."

Well, it turns out that Eryn LOVES it. We are still working on getting a few things put up and finished, but here is a peek at what it looks like. I'll take more pics when things are really settled in there. :)
