My little one had a couple of days off from school, so we decided to leave Daddy at home and go visit my parents (2.5 hours away). As it happens, my dad is a "hack-of-all-trades" do-it-yourselfer too and has been helping my mom put the finishing touches on a new bedroom that was recently built in their house. They've been busy caulking, painting, and choosing colors, fabrics, artwork, and other decorative finishes.
Finally all that was left was the installation of window treatments, bathroom accessories (towel bars, etc.), artwork hanging, and the arrangement of furniture in the room. Dad and I decided to do this while mom was at work as a surprise! Since some of the readers of this blog will be guests in the next couple of weeks, I won't spoil the surprise of the "BIG REVEAL" but will post some snapshots of some of the projects Dad and I did!

We also got the bed assembled and all of the other furniture arranged. It was a productive visit and Mom was very pleased with what we accomplished ...AND I got to have some of mom's home cookin'! You can't beat that!
*To readers that will be visiting soon—we can't wait to show you the results of all of the hard work that has gone into this room in person! See you soon! xoxo
