Another Project at our House

For anyone that knows me knows that I love doing projects. I am not sure that Josh would feel the same way, but he is a good trooper and always helps me out. Our most recent project was Paytons room. We had to make his room special so that we could move him out of our room. We did a little painting, Josh made him a bunk bed, and we got him  GI Joe bedding. The room turned out amazing!!! Payton loves it. He has been sleeping in it for the past week and we are so happy about that.
I would have to say the bunk bed turned out amazing. I have a very talented husband who can build pretty much anything. He had a little help from my dad while my dad was here, but my dad would even tell you Josh did most of the work. I feel very blessed to have a husband who enjoys doing these little projects I suggest to him. He is the best husband ever and I love him more than ever for working so hard.  I don't think there is anything he can't do!

The top color (a green color)

The bottom is a brown color

Josh and my dad were very meticulous about getting the stripe just right

The stripe is a dark green

We went for the GI Joe look as you can tell

The Building of the Bed

Payton was such a good helper with his tool belt, goggles, hat, and boots.

Josh is so AMAZING!!!

All the pieces before being all put together.

The bed had to be finished being built in the room.

Payton loved climbing to the top.

The finished product. Not the best picture but you get the idea!

It looks awesome! So glad that Payton loves it and has retreated to his own room now! So, what's going to be new in baby sister's room?
