Aunt Kim comes to town!

We are lucky enough to have an Aunt who is an AMAZING painter in our family! Even luckier, she came to visit us the other day and painted the kid's rooms! Yeah! This is the Aunt and Uncle that we used to live near in Idaho, so the kids have seen her work and have been begging her forever. But since before we were in a rental (while in Idaho) we couldn't have her do anything, but now we are home, so she come to the rescue! Below are the kids rooms. I wish I had taken before shots so you could really appreciate the difference, but alas... I didn't. :(







Just so you can see them a little closer... Here's Riley's garden room. It's SO amazing!! I can't even stress this enough. The two flowers on either side of the window are HUGE!! Like 4 feet high!

Harris's room isn't quite done... he has bunk beds with dog quilts, and Kim took home three 20 x 24 canvases that she is painting three of the specific dogs from his quilt on. So far it has a "rugby" themed paint job with the three main colors from his quilt in it, which in itself it adorable, but I will post the pics once we get them so you can get the complete idea.

Onto Jack's room. You got to see it a bit in the earlier post, but here's a better pic of it. It's SO cute with it's blue stripes. We will be putting up a chair rail around the top of the stripes, so again it's not quite done, but I couldn't wait to share!!

Thanks SO Much Aunt Kimmie! We love you! Come back soon! (And not just to paint!!) :)
