Pics....
last night when i straggled upstairs wayyyyyy past my bedtime, i went through my usual routine of checking on the kids. i was walking by their bathroom and heard water running. granted, this isn't the first time that the kids have left the water on after getting a late-night drink or anything, but... here's what i found. not only was the water on almost full-blast but there was also a cup over the drain!
thank goodness our overflow works like it should and could handle the flow rate! i hadn't heard anyone get up and run to the bathroom, so it's entirely possible one of the girls left it on after brushing their teeth - FOUR HOURS EARLIER! nice, huh? what else to do than take a pic, go to bed and discuss it with them in the morning! apparently, it was an "experiment" to see how full the sink would get overnight....
so we're almost back into our daily routine. the girls are doing VBS again this week but at a different church. this one is all about the USofA and the history of our country. they've really had a great time thus far. they even have floppy hats for them to wear & all the volunteers are dressed in colonial garb! very fun.
i'm going to attempt to redo the kids' bathroom in the next week or so (well, that's the plan, anyway). i found this awesome little piece of art at etsy by anne dejong (be sure to check out her other art - it's so stinking cute!!!) the bathroom is going to revolve around the colors & theme - the girls have been wanting a "sea life" bathroom for a while and anything is better than what they have now!!!
i'm attempting not to make the entire house a rainbow of colors that don't at least flow together, so the aqua blue in here is the same as the other bathroom i recently redid. i'm thinking the kids' bathroom will be red and then i'm going to do Frogger's room in that darker blue. we'll see how it all comes together.
anyway, the point to all this... i was in target this morning while the girls were off playing. i didn't think i'd find anything to go with the painting so easily; however, look what i found - a bunch of super fun sea-life goodies!!! pretty stinking cute, huh??? they've also got a shower curtain that will work perfectly - it's mostly white, so i'm hoping it tones down the bright red a little bit.
this second picture... jayne was playing around with my camera and this is what i got when i uploaded the pics to my computer! what the heck, woman?! not that i don't like seeing you, but maybe even a blurry head shot would have been better than stinky feet?! <3
