Excuse Our Mess...We are Under Construction

It has been a few weeks since I last posted about all our home make over stuff. We had several days where we were waiting on things to arrive (the boys' beds) or people to be available that could assist us in installing some things. With that they have all been here and gone and I just haven't had time to get pictures and sit and write. Though it doesn't look like it in our house right now (the old school room has taken over the living room and down stairs area...lol) we have been working on getting the kitchen ready! However, I am running ahead and need to slow down now so that I may show you the nearly final pictures of the office and the boys' Room.

Let's start with Man of my Dreams' office. He has been ever so content working in his office, having everything he needs right at his finger tips!


His "Tech board" is finally no longer in threat of being knocked down or the sticky notes getting knocked off and then trying to remember what status that customer was at.


The balloon was a gift from the guys at the Tacoma Museum Of Glass hot shop. This is one of our clients and every so often they will give Man of my Dreams a little gift as a thanks for the support we provide. I love this balloon, and yes it really is just glass. It hangs from some fishing line so it looks as though it is just floating there. I am almost tempted to update this particular shot as it is even more polished looking with 3 computers up on the tech bench and the other printer in there as well as the latest file cabinet that we picked up at a GREAT deal on Craigslist.


Now off to the boys room. What I realized here was that I forgot to get a picture of the room from the bed...HA! Well, here is a shot of their new bed anyway. They LOVE it and so do I! Everyone has their own space and it is clearly marked. They will have magnetic boards (just awaiting install) next to each of their beds to hang what ever on (this is the cure to using push pins and staples...yeah!) They all have a hanging, three compartment, thing from IKEA for their current book, light wedge and MP3 players. The boys above will probably end up with some sort of shelf or something as well for their alarm clocks...yes they all have different times that I require them to get up in the morning.
Well, there you have it for now. My pot rack has arrived but we must wait until the weather is cool enough to put it up. I did get my pantry mostly organized...I forgot the before pictures of that but will have the after pics once the door organizer is up and in use. This Monday we begin on the kitchen! I got my paint last night for kitchen, dining and living rooms. I can hardly wait to begin!
