Home Tours - Master Bedroom

I'm linking up with Kelly again for Everyday Real Life Home Tours, master bedroom edition.
I've done this same link up topic before, but since then we have got new bedding and rearranged the furniture a little.


 We got our bedroom set right  before we got married 10 years ago and I still love it.

It's actually much darker than it looks in this photo


 We switched places with the armoire and the tall dresser because we were trying to make room for a bookcase that we needed to move out of our loft.  Turns out we didn't need to but Paul really liked having the armoire in the corner.  And since we don't have a TV in it anymore it doesn't really need to be right in front of the bed, not that it needed to in the first place except that's where the cable hookup is.

That outlet by the door is where we charge all our devices every night :)



It used to look like this



 I am kind of sick of the red wall so we are going to paint it soon.  It's just one of those projects that we never find time for.



Here's a better picture of our bedding, we just have different throw pillows plus the big European pillows. 
Jennifer Lopez bedding at kohls. Really makes a room.:

I love that little cove that your bed sits back in!!! :)
I am visiting from the blog hop and so excited to see this cozy bedroom. I am also super intrigued by your blog. I have always kept a foot in the door of work, but am officially re-launching my career soon--I am also a "former stay at home mom" (almost) with two girls!!! I look forward to reading about your adventures!

I am visiting from Kelly's Korner -- and I like what you have done in your bedroom. I really like the armoire in the corner, which is where I would love to put my own. Right now it still has a behemoth TV in it, which I hope to get rid of when we finally get rid of our ghastly carpet this Fall. So for now it is at the end of the bed like yours was.

Come see me sometime!

Hi I am stopping over from Kelly's Korner. You have a beautiful bedroom. I must say I am partial to dark furniture, too! Take care!

Luther Burbank Park

Last summer a friend of mine introduced me to this cool park on Mercer Island.  When we went, we only played at the swimming beach and never explored the rest of the park or played on the playground.  So yesterday, we finally went back with a picnic lunch and checked out some more of the park (there's still another section we didn't get to, so maybe next time).  The playground was really cool with all sorts of nooks and cranies, and old-fashioned metal slides and ladders.  They girls loved it. View from our picnic spot A pyramid with slides on the other side Lake Washington beyond Chair swings--never seen these before I-90 bridge over Lake Washington Trail along the lake leading to the swimming beach Should have brought swimsuits.  They were SO sandy and wet coming home.

First Day of 10th Grade

 Today was the first day of 10th grade for the girls.  Sophomores.  I can't believe we only have two more of these.  Not counting college, of course. Kayley Kayley again Olivia It has become my tradition to take the day before and the first day off.  Back in the elementary days, the day before the first day was "meet the teacher day", so I would always take them to that, then in middle school we would just go to lunch or get our nails done.  Last year was their first day of high school, though, so that day was orientation and that brings us up to this year.  The day before the first day is "Wildcat Day", which is mostly a freshman and new student orientation.  Olivia is in ASB so she had to go help with that, but Kayley didn't go.  Instead, her and I took some of her old clothes to this resale store called Plato's Closet to try and sell them (it's similar to a consignment shop except they just pay you then and there and then resell them, instead of o

A Day in My Life

  It's time once again for the Multiples and More Question of the Week:  A Day in Your Life. What is your schedule like? Do you work outside the home or stay home with the kids?   I am very blessed to be a SAHM.  Our schedule looks something like this: The girls get up anywhere between 7:20 and 8:20, but usually around 8:00.  Lately I've been letting them watch an episode of Dora so I can get on the computer and check email, Facebook, etc.  Otherwise they just play for an hour or so and then we have breakfast. By the time we're done with breakfast (fixing, eating and cleaning up) it's usually between 9:30 and 10:00.  We get dressed, and then we go wherever we're going that day (errands, park, playdate, etc.).  If it's a stay home day, I'll usually do a DVD workout while they just play upstairs and then we'll go for a walk or play outside after. Lunch is anywhere between 12:00 and 1:00, and nap is 1:30 or 2:00 to 4:00 or 4:30. After their nap
