A Room for the Princess of Pink

Brenna's reward for being good in Utah while Daddy was already in Texas working was her choice of wall color for her new room. I know you'll be shocked to find out that the color choice was pink. The one thing that did surprise me was the choice of polka dot bedding. I thought for sure we were going to end up with a sea of different shades of pink with a token smattering of purple. We hoodwinked Grammie (and later Grandpa) into painting Brenna's room when they visited us for the first time.

Here's the painter extraordinaire...

...and her "helper". This part of the wall had to be smoothed out a little when the "helper" was taking a union break. You know juice boxes, Goldfish and Hannah Montana.

This was the first attempt at putting dots on the walls. We lived with it for a little while and then decided to order more dots of different colors. We also decided that random dots on the walls just weren't orderly enough (at least for Mommy).

And here's where we ended up...with flowers. Brenna chose the color scheme for each flower, and Mommy stuck them on the wall.


Even the Barbies approve! They had a hot tub party to celebrate. Strange, I don't see Ken in this picture. I guess he thought all the pink and flowers were too girly for him. He can wear a pink tux, but he can't handle a girl party. I think I'm a little worried about him.

And the result is a room fit for the Princess of Pink!
