Room Update

Just wanted to give a little room update. Dave installed new outlets and plates plus a new light switch that glows in the dark. Then we tore up the old carpet and pad and and some of the old tackboard (not that fun). But we did order some new carpet and it should be professionally installed on the 5th. I'm so excited. After the carpet is in, we are going to start moving her stuff downstairs. Woohoo! Last night we put up her really cute wall lights, there are three, an orange seahorse, a blue seashell and a green ladybug. Everything will look so bright and cheerful when it's all put together. The next step for me, while I patiently wait for the carpet to get here, is paint the floor boards and trim. We have to get at least the floor boards in before the carpet is installed. It wasn't an easy task finding carpet that wouldn't clash with these sunny walls. Hee hee.

Holy cow, I know that it probably doesn't feel like it to you, but you guys are cruising along! I can't wait to see it finished. I love that it's going to be a bright and fun place. What color did you go for with the carpet?

We went with a light beige cut berber, and I think it has a little bit of fleck in it too. I can't wait to get it installed next week.
