Well….taking a little summer break turned into taking a big summer break. One minute I was a blogging machine and the next minute it was staying light til 9pm and we were swimming and playing and then I blinked and it was rodeo week and then the beach annnnd now it’s October 1st.

And I have missed blogging! There have been so many projects and MCM finds over the summer that I have put in the back of my mind for a blog post so it’s time I get back to it.

Last I blogged I was really close to revealing Sam’s new room. Since then I have allowed Sam’s new room to hang out at 90% completion. However, when I look back at the “before” picture (see below), I like where we are now!

The before. Functional bedroom, some art not pictured here but still fairly bland. See how the small art on the wall feels dwarfed? Biggest pet peeve!

Now here are the in progress shots:

You’d think I could have made the bed here. Instead I guess I just tossed the blanket over the messed up sheets. I can’t go back now guys…that plant in the corner died last month so this half-hearted bed making is frozen in time. Whoops!

I’m a huge fan of how these awesome affordable dinosaurs double as toys and decor. This is where they stand, as little knick-knacks but they are also easily accessible for fun.

And here is as far as we got..I added a fun garland and a white banner I intended to write some funny or cheeky message on. In reality I’m just not as cool as those people who can write “Oh Yeah.” or “Awe-some” in their cute kid rooms. It just felt weird!
