A new room!!!

Aimee's room is a box room, she had a bed, a chest of drawers and a wardrobe and you could barley swing a cat!!!!

We decided to knock 2 cupboards and open them into Aimee's room. I cupboard was in Aimee's room and was useless as you couldn't open it fully so things just got thrown in there. The other cupboard was reached by the hallway!!! Steve made a fantastic job of knocking the walls down, moving a radiator, wallpapering, painting, putting down carpet extra!!!!!!

At the moment we don't have the wardrobe in!!! But we banned Aimee from looking at her room when we began wallpapering. She hasn't seen her room in 3/4 days. I am saying now AIMEE PICKED OUT THE WALLPAPER AND PAINT COLOUR..... NOT ME!!!!!

We also got her matching duvet set, curtains, wall stickers and light shade withour her knowing!!! I took some photos of her coming in to the room and she was for the first time speechless and all she could say was WOW!!!!!

Once we get the wardrobes done, I will post more pics!!!!

A funny poem

Found this on SB.com forum posted by Lynn!!!

Wife says to husband...
"Look - I got invited to a 'party' and I won't have to buy a basket, or jewelry, or candles, or even another plastic container!

This party is different because I'm going to MAKE a page for a scrapbook!

I'm going to learn how to put all those pictures we keep in a box into a photo album that will last lifetimes!"

FOR YEARS AFTERWARDS what can be heard in the home:

-"How much can a pair of scissors cost? And why do you need an entire cutting system if you bought scissors?"


-"The photo album was HOW MUCH? You HAD to get a paper trimmer too?
Then please tell me ... what are the scissors for?"

-"How many magazines do you need to buy to be INSPIRED? And what's with all this paper?"


-"You want what for your birthday? A Xyron? What the heck is Xyron?"


-"I don't understand why you need a digital camera. The 35mm I bought
after college works just fine."


-"OUCH!!!! I just stepped on one of your %&*(*&% eyelets! "


-"MORE paper? You haven't even used up what you got already!"


-"First the camera, then the printer, what's next a scanner?"


-"I see ... so if we get these Target cubes you'll be able to see the paper you have and then you won't have to buy anymore?"


-"Son, how many times have I told you - You CANNOT play with Mommy’s tools!"


-"I don't get it...why do we have to go to Lowes to get paint chips if we aren't doing any painting around here?"


-"Don't worry sweetie...we won't tell Mommy you borrowed her stickers to make Barbie look pretty."


-"You had a 40% off coupon and you still spent over $100??"

-"What do you need all this yarn for? You don't even knit! Do you?"

-"No dear. I do not know how to scan and stitch. Maybe someone on YOUR message board can help you there."

-"Who took Daddy's sandpaper?"

-"It's 11PM. Isn't that layout done YET?"

-"Shhh ...don't tell Daddy that Mommy borrowed his sandpaper."

-"Yes, I guess we can stop at that cute little scrapbook store during our vacation."


-"You're going to take a ********? I meant going to a crop... never mind."


-"NO MOMMY! NO MORE PICTURES! NO MORE PICTURES! NO MORE PICTURES!"


-"So who is this Becky Higgins and what's the big deal about her? She an actress or something?"

-"I thought you already had a sewing machine. So what's this one for?"


-"No..I've never printed on vellum before..YES..I can help you figure out the right printer settings..but what the heck is vellum?"


-"Queen of the week doesn't mean you won't still make dinner, right? Right? Whew."


-"You just joined a what? A swap? I'm really happy for you honey."


-"MORE paper? What's so special about this 'BRAZIL' paper?"


And the hardest one of all...

-"Where did all these boxes of pictures come from...I thought you were going to put them all in a scrapbook! "
