reagan's christmas gift



You have to give the girl some props...she thinks big. No it's not "I want a new bedspread" or " I want a new color on my walls" It's "I want a new room with all the trimmings!" It's like when my cousin's little boy told Santa he wanted a 'Toys R Us' for Christmas...big thinkers! I really don't know what Santa was thinking when he gave Reagan cans of paint and accessories. I was waiting for some elves to show up the next day and get started! So I'm thinking it was a way of rewarding Reagan for being such a good girl and a way of telling me I need to shape up...the proverbial lump of coal for me, if you will. The room turned out really cute. I'm quite jealous of it, especially of the groovy reading corner with the lava lamp. ( I'm so gonna make one of those for me!) Oh and next year I'll know to not just ask Santa for a new picture for my wall, I'll ask for an entire living room make over...but trust me I'll remember to ask for elves too!!
You get 3 points if you can guess the Artist and Song title!

OH man that's great!!!! I think it's a blast fixing up kids' rooms. What could be more fun? Love the wall words but what the H song is that from? No clue honey...

You have given me the desire to finish Alexys' room now. I started it over a year ago. She has been very patient with me. (Love her) You did a great job!!!

Everything about the room is perfect... except one thing... what's up with that "a" in her name... C'mon!
