Mommy on a mision...

Not me, lol! Missy!
In December Missy and her little boy Kenton moved in with Taleen and Ken. Kenton has been sleeping in the room we used to call "Missy's Condo" it connected to her bedroom - and as all last children should do... she spread out and used as much space as possible. Michael had painted her this murel on one of the walls in this room...inspiring her as she began her new life as an adult!
Well, Since then Ken and Tal had made this room into Grandma's nursery - but had yet to paint over the inspirational wall... Miss decided it was time - as she starts fresh a new era in her life. We bought up a truckload of Peanut Butter MnM's and paint and began painting... Did you know "stupid hour" as Mercedes calls it, hits about midnight? Well - Missy, Ken, Tal, Mercedes and I were hard at work...or play for a few nights - it was really fun and in the end...the room looked beautiful!



I have to add - the guy at the paint store sold us some awesome green tape! it was "frog tape" some sort of magic adhesive mumbo jumbo - Well even though it was like 2X the price of the normal blue painters tape.. It was totally worth it! very little bleeding on the stripes and we were so glad we did the stripe accent wall! the other 3 walls were solid - 1 green, 1 orange & 1 blue.
