Recently, we completed a pretty major overhaul of the boys bedrooms. It was officially time to get rid of the toddler beds and get the kids adult-sized furniture that would hopefully last them through their teens. The project went like this:
- Time to get rid of Joshie's crib bedding that's still up in his 4-year-old room
- May as well update Jacob's bed too since his feet are sticking off the edge
- I guess we'll have to get dressers/nightstands to match new twin beds for the boys
- We need all new bedding for both kids
- Now we need to go through all their clothes and clean out the closets to transfer to the drawers
- We'll have to purge all the toys/books to make room for the new furniture
So, it blew up into a project that took months of research, painting, purging and decorating. It's finally done! The kids (and parents) are really pleased with the results. Here are a few photos for fun:
The "themes" were decided:
Josh = Sports Goofy *
*nostalgic note: this sport goofy used to belong to Jon as a little boy!
Jacob = Superheroes
Out with the old, and in with the new!
Josh's before/after
Jacob's before/after
The rooms are almost unrecognizable, in a good way. PHEW! We'll see how long these "themes" last, but at least we won't be swapping out furniture anytime soon. A great accomplishment before we head into the busy holidays!

Switchfoot Concert
We took the boys to their first Christian rock concert! Switchfoot was in town and the was the perfect band to break in the kids to the experience.
Now that Grandma works at Grand Canyon University, we've been getting some awesome seats at the new GCU Arena (thanks, Grandma!!) Here's a few photos from the boys experience (unfortunately, they didn't quite stay awake for the whole thing!)
Switchfoot ROCKED and we loved having the boys come along!
