out with purple...in with blue!

My awesome {and patient} hubby painted Austin's bedroom over the weekend while I was away with my church for a Women's Retreat. Here's just a sneak peek, but the overall task was definitely not an easy one...which is why it took us a WHOLE YEAR to get it done! Seriously, we finally painted this room exactly a year later from when we moved in. It's a good thing my 3-year old little boy could have cared less that he has been living in a purple room with butterflies for the past year!

{AFTER}
The plan for this room is FIRETRUCKS! But, as with Mikayla's room, we'll see how long it takes to decorate! Sad...oh so sad.

I love that color...what is it? I still haven't painted Ben's room and we've lived here 7 years. He even has a big splotch of pink paint I was testing when his room used to be Brooke's. :) We are determined to paint his room, a bathroom and our entry way this year. I think Ben would like that blue.

It looks awesome! That is a great blue....not too dark and not too baby blueish either!

I love that blue with the wainscoting. We have some painting to do in our house too and we've been there 5 years. You're doing great!
