The New and Improved Playroom

When we were in Spokane for Easter we went over to look at my brother and sister in laws new house.  It was amazing. It looked like it was straight out of a magazine. My sister in law Kim is very talented and has a great eye for decorating. I told Cirdan that I wanted her to come upgrade our playroom! We talked to her the day we were leaving and she said that she would help us out. When we got home I looked up some ideas online and Kim let us know when she was able to come over. It all worked out perfect! I had the room painted a grey color and Cirdan and I were lucky and found a yellow couch the weekend before she was here. My kids were excited because she was bringing her  girls who they love to be with!
Here are some before pictures. The room was not functional. The kids just stuffed things places and every time I walked passed the room I got annoyed.

AFTER!

We were going to do one wall with chalkboard paint but the painter told us about this super cool white board paint so we did that instead. The kids love it!
This is a room the kids actually want to be in now
I've been having fun with the whiteboard also
Still need to put pictures in the frames....
All the kids
While Kim and I were shopping the girls had fun doing makeovers.  Cirdan watched all of the kids so Kim and I could shop.
Painting nails
Kate hung out with Cirdan and watched some football.  She told Cirdan that she doesn't want him to play football because she doesn't want him to get hurt.
Very Very Very thankful to Kim and her willingness to do this!!! She is wonderful!!!
We had her help with some other areas of the house so Cirdan was busy hanging things when we got back. Jett always has to help too.
