Bunkin' the Boys

One of my goals this year is to start decorating this house and making it a home.  I am starting with the boys bedroom.  I have a good idea of what I want the room to look like so I am hunting for all the little details now :)
First off beds.... check!

I started my bunk bed search a few days ago.  I have a problem with making up my mind.  It was such a hard decision!  I looked all around and finally decided on a pine color bed.  I bought a bunk bed I *thought* was the color like they had on display, took it home and opened the box to find a cherry color.  Grrrr!  That particular bed went right back to the store.  I ended up getting a blue set instead.

I'm still getting use to seeing it in the room.  Going from a toddler bed to bunks is quite the change!

I think my boys were more excited about the boxes the beds came in then the beds.  I let them color and make "roads" on the huge boxes....

   

Now I am trying to decide on the perfect comforter and sheets set for them.  That is proving to be a difficult search too!

Elves on Our Shelf!

Whoa has it really been since Halloween!?!  Whoops.

I feel like I have been trapped under a pile of hats and laundry :)  The holidays are killing me in the time department! 

Do you do "elf on the shelf"?  I saw this list on Pinterest of fun ideas and decided I had to get some elves!  Luckily, my mom had 2 perfect elves for the job.  I remember them from when I was little, I use to play with them in the tree.  Our elves arrived yesterday straight from the North Pole!

The note from Santa basically said "You two better be good for your Mama or else..." and "my elves see EVERYTHING".  Ha, we will see how good this works and I will let you know.  Ryker was way excited to see a package from Santa in the mail but was a little confused when it was just two old elves.  He keeps telling me they are just plastic!! Little stinker! I think when they start being silly around the house he will get into it a bit more.

Today they are going for a ride on our deer.  Tonight I am thinking they are going to get caught sneaking candy :)

 Happy FRIDAY friends!
