one down, 30 to go

Last week I decorated my bedroom (this consisted of hanging up pictures I have been meaning to hang up for quite some time, a little rearranging and the purchase of some throw pillows for my bed) and crossed the first item off my birthday list. One of my New Year's resolutions is to make my bed every day (something I have never consistently done in my life) which is quite fun to do when you have a cute room and fun pillows to throw on the bed (hooray for a New Year's resolution I can keep). Paul took this picture of George and me chillaxing this afternoon. You will notice that the pictures above our bed look like they were hung to resemble the bars on the AT&T Wireless commercials (Paul's analogy not mine). Let me just say baby steps people, baby steps. Maybe next year my birthday list will include leveling the pictures hanging above my bed...maybe it won't. I'm not telling.

Way funny. I can't wait to see your new room. I like the new blog look. Very Fresh.

I just noticed that your new blog background is the same color as the paint in your house. It now totally reflects your home.

I love the new pictures of your boys at the top of your blog. Especially the on of George with dirt all over his face.

Congratulations on getting your room done. However, I don't know how you can stand your picture not being even. It would but me so bad I wouldn't be able to sleep. Really, I am not kidding. I am little OCD about stuff like that.

I meant bug me

Love accomplishing a goal! Good for you! I haven't even made a list! You should get one of those suction to the wall levels, they are very handy to have! Not that you needed one or anything!

Colle said...

Congratulations!!! If I hang my own pictures they tend to be crooked also so I say way to go!

First, I really like your new blog. I love your bed comforter and photos above your bed. Great look!

I just read through all the comments and I am totally with Tyra on this one. I wouldn't have been able to put the hammer away until I got the pictures perfectly straight. It would drive me insane! But it doesn't bother you, so that's all good! Good job accomplishing one of your goals!

Laurel said...

Great job Amy.... I am giggling a little over the straight picture comments. Just because :) Enjoy that finished bedroom!!

Sorry I haven't checked your blog in a while. I like your background because it used to be the one I used. Ha!
I've been enjoying reading about George's silly antics with the play and potato heads. And I really like your bed comforter. You said it was from IKEA right?

My comforter is from IKEA and btw I did use one of those suction cup wall levelers to hang the pictures above my bed...I think I was just in too much of a hurry. But it doesn't really bug me that they are crooked.
