bye bye wallpaper

My sister Charity was in town this weekend. I am always most motivated when she is either in or coming to town! On Friday I took down William's retro Aztec-inspired wallpaper border and today we took down the one wall of paper in Cameron's room (even though it's not much of a Sabbath activity, it's just when we had the time to do it. :). The wallpaper had a shimmery monkey-grass/memorial to the American wetlands type feel to it. It. Needed. To. Go. Cameron was a most anxious helper in improving the state of living in his room.


"HORRAY. The monkey-grass is going to be gone!"

Project Manager: "Mom, you missed a spot."

"Whaddaya looking at?"

In a fleeting moment of remorse, Cameron tries to reapply the monkey-grass marsh to his walls.

Cameron really is the destroyer of our house. Toy cars, recycling, dirty laundry, and shoes of all sizes are scattered all over the house by our little hurricane. Yesterday afternoon the kids bathroom was hardest hit area along his path of destruction.
