MAKEOVER MAGIC

We had such a great weekend! Jason, Karli and I re-did mom and dad Boe's living room {and some of their kitchen} in about 48 hours. They were in Michigan with Jenny and the girls so that worked out great. Karli had a lot of the messy/ lifting putting stuff everywhere and back part....Jason was the "master painter" and I was basically in charge of the "decorating, lunch/dinner and keeping an eye on the boys so they didn't get in the paint"..............easy, right? We {they--I just did a little of the trimming and taping, ha!} spent all day/evening Sat. night painting, then I went back up there Sunday to finish decorating---Karli took many of the before and after pictures which are on facebook if you want to see! We are also getting "family pictures" at Thanksgiving so that is what the wall will be covered in....pictures from Thanksgiving, for now....those will do! =)

Sunday was Mom Boe's 60th birthday and boy was she shocked!!! I can't wait to see the video. We'll have to put it up {if she doesn't mind} once Jason gets it! We love you Mom and Dad and we are so thrilled that you like it!!
















um, ya...when I was making lunch the boys got/found some of their Christmas presents from Mom....oops...sorry Mom!!! They did have fun taking the stickers and putting them all over their clothes....kept them quite busy for a long period of time =)

uppercase living, I think I have some in every room of my house. ha ha. they have the CUTEST sayings for little girls...you would love them...I saw sayings at Kohls too!

Thanks! We only were going to do one wall the green....but the other walls looked terrible after the wallpaper was off and we had to do all of them...ugh! We also wanted a tan color, not a yellow...but oh well. Karli kept saying Mom would love the colors and she was right!!
