Room Makeover!




Halfway through painting i was like crap before pics!!!!!..lol

















Cody made this dresser in High School in Woodshop which I think is so cool so I had to keep it but obviously I had to update it just a little...so what do you do a little paint little mod podge pretty paper(thank you corie for showing me that stuff) new hardware.......



and totally cute dresser!!!..I think it turned out so freaking good..This is my first ever redo of anything and it turned out awesome and now im hooked and just want to go yard saling and thrifting and just start going crazy with doing stuff like this cause is seriously so fun!!!..haha..I love it!! I feel so handy now!! :) haha



So the entertainment stand thing! This thing is from my parents they had since i was serisously like 3 haha and for some reason our internet hook up is in Tatums room so I didnt want the stuff hanging out all ugly so I had my brother bring this thing down that was just hanging out in my dads barn. little bit of paint some Mod Podge and pretty paper and......



You get this!! I think it turned out good matches her room perfectly and hides all ugly interntess and gives her some more space to store stuff! so proud of my redoness here...lol!!






Over the week of Thanksgiving while my mom was down I decided to finally decorate Tatums room! A year in half into this house im finally getting to Taums room! I never rushed because she was never in her room she slept in mine!! But she is finally sleeping in her own bed in her own room so I thought Id make it A little cute for her! I think it turned it out really cute! I still have a few things im gonna add here and there more stuff on the wall..maybe a fun mirror she loves dancing in front of the mirror but eventually it will all be done!! ..Slowly but surely im getting my house the way I want it..one room at a time one nick-nack at time one project here and there but eventually it will be exactly how I want it!!

Yay For Christmas Decor!!! :)

Entry way!! So Fun!! :)


An advent calender my mom made this year crafty lady!! :) so cute you take one down a day and theres a treat hidden inside they love it!!


Growing up my mom had this really cute gingerbread display so I kinda wanted to do something like that..well apparently gingerbread creep cody out so this was the only thing that i could do that could have a gingerbread on it! Which is cute and Tatum thinks its her open bar to candyland all day long!!


Stocking are hung! :)


Tatum decorated Gunner a stocking adorable


The Christmas Tree...I have to highlight a few of my favorite ornaments on the tree so here i go.......


The tractor ornament my mom gave us all to remember big Grandpa.


The moose ornament from our Lake Tahoe Trip!


The dove we got at the ornament exchange last year!


This thing! The picture does not give it justice! We got it on our trip to Maui its a BlowFish with shoes all over in her hair and its says loves shoes haahaha..and its just ugly..haha...but we liked and they were everywhere and apparently this lady that makes them is a big deal cause there are like statues of this thing you can buy for your house over there so we had to get one for our tree!


This tree my big Grandpa carved its my favorite I think of him everytime I look at it!


Cody went shopping with me to get all my stuff and this is what he picked out!!..So random..It is pretty cute sitting on the shelf though...Its turned out to be my favorite cause everytime I look at it I think of him and how he must secretly wanna be a cowboy!! :)


My lil craft I did glowing gift boxes love them so cute!!..haha


My mom made this advent calender last year for them so we have to have double the stickers so they each get a turn!! They love doing it they get so excited every morning to do it!! We had the exact one growing up so its pretty fun that my kids have one now and have the same tradition that I did because I loved that count down sticker tree it was my favorite!! :)


First sticker of the year!!


Gunner got stickered and wasnt happy about it!!!



~Every year for Christmas Cody would never let me go out and get Christmas decorations he would always be like next year..next year..next year..4 years later he finally let me!! SO EXCITED!!! We never had any kinda stuff up all month long im pretty sure last year was the first time we even had a tree so I was so excited that he let me go all out and get stuff!! We just kept putting it off because we kept moving and just had so much going on and this year we are just finally at home and have our little family complete and its so fun!! So I had to share!..they are nothing too exciting but I really like them and I think that they are really cute and turned out really good!!..Love Love Love Christmas time and Love the month of December so much fun!! :)
