A New Bedroom

My mom came and stayed for a few days a couple of weeks ago while Joey was gone for a conference.  I've been planning on re-doing Sammie and Abby's room for a while and my mom and I got right to it when she arrived.  I had to go through all of their things and got rid of lots of stuff that they had in their room. It was mostly books.  Some we kept in a box in the garage that they can still get to if they need it.  I made them giant magnet boards so they can hang all their things in one place and they each have their own side of the dresser.
I love picking out paint colors.  I searched high and low for the perfect grey to compliment their decor.  I just wanted it to look soft and relaxing.  I felt like they needed a space like this.  Sammie and Abby just love it and, for now, they have a place for everything (even some of their "treasures" aka junk.)  I find myself going in their room and sitting because it feels like such a relaxing spot.
They have been so much better at keeping their space neat and clean and comfortable.  Now if I can only get them to make their beds regularly.  That would be awesome :)
