Show us your Life: Master Bedroom

I am joining Kelly's Korner: Show us your life. I have really enjoyed looking at everyone's bedrooms and have got lots of ideas. We moved into our house about 6 months ago and there is still alot I want to do. This house was pretty much a blank canvas, all we have had time to paint is the master bedroom. But I have big plans for my husband, HA!

This is the view when you walk into our bedroom from the hall. Our house is like an old farm house, it has 9 ft ceilings and wood floors through out. The rug at the end of the bed is only there because our 6 yr old Shi Tzu (Sam) couldn't get traction on the wood floors to jump on the bed. I absolutly love the brown paint ( I don't remeber the color) color that we chose and let me tell you I am horrible when it comes to picking paint. It takes me forever to make up my mind and this color was choosen within 10 min with the husbands help. I was nervous when he started painting, but now I love love love it.

This is the view across the room looking back toward the door. I like my duvet, it's nothing fancy and I would love to had some color. But I haven't found anything that is just jumping out at me. I love anitques and I am looking for some new pieces to add to our bedroom. That's why we don't have a headboard, haven't found anything. I thought about trying to make something, any suggestions would be helpful.

This is the view from the other corner of the room. You see the sign above the door, a friend of ours painted that for us it say's " To the world you are but one person, but to one person you are the world". Our TV looks really small in this picture, but it's a 37 in. I know alot of people don't like a TV in the bedroom, but this is the only time I get to be quite and just relax. Of course you someone else who loves our bedroom, Sam. He loves to lay on our bed (he sleeps here everynight). I hope you have enjoyed, I still have a lot to do.

Alyssa Homecoming 2010

This was Alyssa's corsage, Thank You Nunnie and Paw.
We curled her hair and I bought crystal bobby pens. She wore make-up for the first time.

Her dress we got at JcPenney and shoes from Payless Shoe Source for all we paid $45.oo, not bad for her first dance.

She looks very pretty and all grown up. I can't believe in just 2 months she will be 13, it seems like it was just yesterday that she was born. Momma and Daddy love you very much and we hope you grow up to worship the Lord with all your heart and serve him.

7th grade Science project

Today we had a work day. This morning we got up and pressure washed the house and boy did it need it. Next we did the side walk and after all that we then started Alyssa's science project. We had to make an animal cell, now they want you to use things you have around the house. Who has things that you can make a cell out of around the house. These projects always end up costing lots of money.


Saturday we got up and the girls and I headed to town. First stop was the mall, we had to get a homecoming dress. That will be a post all of it's own. After we did all the mall things, we headed to Hobby Lobby. This ended up costing me $40.
