Decor and such

Today has been pretty productive. I headed out soon after the younger two and got some needed things for the house. When I got home Adam and I headed to the Bx for a new propane tank and such. When he wanted to head to Home Depot, I had him drop me off at home. I got busy and got quite a bit done. It usually happens that way.. no one home to interrupt.: )
Aydens room is being done in a sport theme since he is our athlete. His Auntie Candi got him so cute throw pillows before we left and they look great... So "Thank you!!" I also found a neat clock and such so his room is really starting to come together. I still need to get his shelf put up, but since it is so long I need Adams help... otherwise it would be all cockeyed. :o{ I also want to find a cool rug, but his room is almost finished.
Austins room is also coming together pretty well. His is more of like a travel theme. We have made a border out of old license plates at it looks neat. Then we got some old looking advertisement signs/tins. I am still looking for a headboard for his room. I just can't find one that fits the vision in my head. When he got home he was really excited about getting it put together. I love it when they appreciate the work I do!! I can't wait until the other two get home so I can hear their reactions.
Autumn wanted a big girls room, which was fine since she has had the same decor since before she was born... and she is turning eight in a few weeks. I think it was about time. We got her a beautiful handmade quilt for her daybed. It is all flowery and sophisticated. I gave her this teddy bear that my mom and sister made when I was a teenager, it is also floral. She is stoked! I hung up my Kincaid in her room today, it doesn't really go anywhere else in the house and she thinks it beautiful... so Ta-Da! She will jump up and down for excitement. : )
If only the rest of the house was coming together as nicely. We are still looking for furniture to fit the living room, so hopefully this weekend! There just isn't enough time in the day to get everything done. I will post pictures soon so you all can see!
