Samantha Strikes Again!!!

Bedtime is so much fun around our house...never a dull moment. Tonight, after throwing a very mild tantrum once she was in bed, Sam quieted down. She was rather quite for about 30 - 45 min, when all of a sudden we hear..."mommy...mommy...mommy...Mommy...MOMMY! Why are you still awake? It's past your bed time! Where do these kids come up with this stuff??? Needless to say Kara and I tried our hardest to contain our laughter. Some times it is just too hard to stay serious and get upset when you have that kind of comedy coming down the hall.

The Princess Room


Today is Samantha's birthday! Happy number 4 Sam!!!

She wanted a "Princess Room" for her birthday....Darn you Extreme Home Make Over!
Kara did a fantastic job picking out the decorations...She actually made all the princess portraits, and did all the stamping on the bottom half of the wall (castles, crowns, and paisleys).
Of course the colors had to be pink and purple. The pink color was actually called "Pretty in Pink", and came from the Disney color selection at Home Depot. She also wanted a yellow ceiling, but we managed to talk her out of that...Whew! The head board was one we had to put together ourselves, which was quite an adventure, involving a tap and dye set, and dish soap!

We have posted a few pictures for you all to view. Please enjoy!!!
