The Grand Finale

I think Keri's room is coming along nicely. I posted some pics on my Facebook, but I wanted to put some here also. You know, cuz all of you peeps aren't Facebook friends....yet.


 
Remember this hideous, pitiful excuse for a light?
                                                           Voila! New light fixture.


 
I almost wanted this table and lamp for myself. Too cute.

 
Only one of the pillows is new. I recycled some pillows that Keri already had. They just happen to match all the new stuff. 

 
What is a new room without pictures of your loving family?

 
This thing looked much better on the picture than it does unfolded. Maybe I should fill up with dirty clothes to fill it out. Nothing like a bin full of dirty laundry for a new room.

 
Keri's new dresser which I partially put together myself. Then I enjoyed a glass of wine and supervised my dad finishing the dresser. I made sure to instruct him on the proper way to tighten screws, since I'm such an expert now.

 
I include this final picture to demonstrate my extreme displeasure over the billions of push pins I found when cleaning all of her stuff out of the master bedroom. Push pins have therefore been permanently banned from this house. They pose a danger to my feet, fingers, and the well being of my vacuum cleaner. I hereby declare and decree that all push pins found in my home will immediately receive the death penalty.

Did she see it yet?? She's going to love it! And if she doesn't declare, "you're the best mommy ever!" then I do!
