Master Bedroom and Halloween Costumes

Were have I been? Well, Facebook finds more of my attention these days, and even there, I only post two or three times a week. Since our last post this summer, we have kept very busy. The girls enjoyed their summer, and then started Kindergarten in August. Anneliese and Alexa are in the same class together this year after being split up during preschool. So far it has gone well and the girls love school.

The week before last the girls were on fall break, and I decided to take the week off and we had a "staycation". Danica and I used it as an opportunity to paint our master bedroom, which we have been wanting to do for quite some time. The project took us the better part of three days. We paint on the slow side because we'd rather get it right the first time by paying attention to the details. We painted the ceiling as well, which added to the project. The room is much cozier now, and feels really warm, especially at night. The added bonus is that the room stays darker in the morning when the sun comes up. This is has been great for weekend sleep in days. Here are pictures after we finished.




Halloween is here, and Anneliese and Alexa had a party at school on Friday. Their Grandma Debby spent many hours making them wonderful costumes. Anneliese was Cinderella and Alexa was Snow White. They are looking forward to trick or treating tomorrow night.
