Monday night we went to a Girl Scouts Costume Party...the girls had a great time playing games and getting candy :)

Something strange is going on with my blog format...I have no idea how to fix it...so I hope it is a server issues and will fix itself!

Have a great weekend!

The girls and I went to the park today...we had a great time!  I'm kicking myself for not taking them more often during summer break!  

There is always next year :)

WARNING...this is a long and random post...

These picture were taken pre~tummy bug...we had no idea that a bad 24 hour flu bug was out there!  So far Bird is the only one who has gotten it...fingers crossed the rest of us will be ok!  

{be sure to wash your hands!}

 Beanie loves her bubble gum!

 I have made a few changes to the craft/guest bedroom.  I have been dying to paint a room a soft shade of blue...so the craft room it was!  I took a trip to our local Sherwin Williams {I have tried every brand of paint and hands down they have the best paint...even better than Benjamin Moore!} 

The color I {really Allison} finally decided on was Topsail

I used their new Duration paint and it covered the walls in one coat!  I'm so happy with how it turned out!  

It is my happy space!

 I'm also working on a photo wall above the bed...I purchased a few paint samples while at the paint store {they are giant sample cans...score} I went with colors I would have never dreamed of using {Begonia and Luau Green}...and go figure it is looking amazing!  I had a ton of frames that were just sitting in drawers so it was great to get them out and not have to buy anything!  I just finished the wall last night and all that's left to do is add in some of the girls' art work and photos...then I will show you the final product!

 A few weeks ago Beanie was begging us to put the bunk beds back together...now that the girls are a little older we thought it would be ok.  

They have had so much fun playing and sleeping!  This was a random photo that I had... so I will take a couple better pictures of their finished room...I think it turned out great!

  The girls got their haircut today...they both had a great time and look wonderful!

{Beanie only wanted her picture taken twice...so there are way more pictures of Bird}

I love this little man!

I have been so lucky being able to spend extra time with my nephews...my heart runneth over! 

His mommy loves to prop him in the corner of our couch {so does he obviously!} brings back memories of the other little ones when they were babies...so sweet!

Have a great rest of your weekend!
