You know it’s my kitchen when beans are cooking on the stove and tortillas are rising in the Kitchen Aid!
Living room 1:
Living room 2:
Hallway:
Playroom/school room:
Master bedroom:
Girls’ room:
Like the Texas Star? Oh, yeah. 😉

i like how you finally admitted that the “School room” now doubles as a toy room as well. you kept saying “school room” and i walked in on sunday and saw all those toys and thought “my kids are gonna want to do school at your house!” 🙂 looks very homey 🙂

Since we have the long term goal of turning it into the school room, we just started calling it that. But as I look at it right now, you can’t even see the floor for all the toys and books. Thus, it’s the playroom/school room. 😉

Looks wonderful, love the kitchen! Are you planning to homeschool the girls?

Yes, we are planning to homeschool them. I’ve actually been thinking about writing a post about it, so keep a look out!

Sarah- looks so great! I did immediately spot the Texas Star!!!!!!! Yea!
I also loved the sheet wrapped around the crib- limits distractions?

Emily, I totally thought of you when I posted that picture! And for the sheet- yes to limit distractions. Works awesome! However, I hate the ugliness of a blue sheet wrapped around H’s crib, so yesterday I bought a cute flowery sheet for cheap at Wal-Mart. Much cuter and pleasing to the eye. 😉

Impressive! If we ever buy a house, I’d like your advise on how to decorate! You did an amazing job, especially considering you have two lil’ ones!

Looks like the girls will have lots of room to run around! Your office area looks really great!
