What's the point..

I love all the blogs I visit. I am obsessed with checking in on a few, specifically House of Smiths, Crap I've Made, and The Lettered Cottage to name just a few. I've gotten to the point where I'm envious of their success and that's just silly. Everyone starts small and that's okay. I need to be happy with just ME writing to please ME rather than worrying about if I even have one reader at all. I also need to concentrate on writing each day, to chronicle our lives so I can look back at all the fun we've had over time. I don't know what I want this blog to be, I'd love to have a gorgeous design blog, but I also want to write about my day, my kids, the craziness that ensues. We'll see what happens.


As for today, we had fun in a homemade slip and slide out in the yard. I even convinced Hubby to go for it. It was a blast :) Now I'm working on the boys room (taking a late lunch break). I want to give them a super cool Star Wars inspired room a la Pottery Barn:



And here's what we have to work with:




Obviously a far way to go!


Eventually, we want to build bunk beds into the closet, however at the moment we are lacking on time. My parents come to visit in a week and we need to get something set up so my brother has somewhere to sleep, well, other than our loveseat ;)
