A LOT has happened in the last several months, including my husband finishing his Secret Service training and our family moving to Colorado. An exciting change that went along with all of this was being able to buy our first home! It was an interesting experience going through that process while my husband and I were in different states and we were buying a home in another state and yada, yada, yada. But it worked out great and we are really excited! I love that I can finally throw some paint on the walls and put nail-holes wherever I want to.
Our first order of business for the home was painting Annie's room. Since the whole "we're moving to Denver" process has started, we've promised Annie she could have a room decorated however she wanted. Her immediate request was a "purple princess room". She has not wavered on that at all, so we felt a strong obligation to deliver. After a few coats of "grape-o-licious", here's what we have:
She loves it, but also asks why some of the trees are square, so maybe I didn't get it exactly right. Oh, well! We are having fun!
