Matt and I have decided it is time to get a new mattress. We have had our current one for as long as we have been married. But, that is not what I am excited about. Us getting a new mattress means Madeline gets our old one, and Christopher gets Madeline's old full mattress. The excitement in that means: NEW BEDROOM DECOR FOR EVERYONE!!
Well, only for Madeline and Christopher, but that is still awesome. I'm tyring to think of something great for both rooms, but I can't think of anything so far. I'm sure when I go out to look I will find a deal of a life time (because we all know I ALWAYS find the best deals EVER!).
I want to do Madeline's room in something girly-but-not-little-girly-or-high-school-musical-hannah-montana-girly. The bed she will have will be a dark cherry-ish. I need to clean the dirt off of it. Matt's crazy friend, John, had it sitting out in his yard for a while. When Matt picked up the foss ball table from him he saw it, and decided to rescue it too! Oh John, what are we ever going to do with you?
I have no idea what to do with Christopher's room. I went to Pottery Barn kids to get some ideas...not that I would buy anything from there.
All of these important decisions I have to make...my life is so difficult!!

Hey Melissa!! Glad you found us...I was getting ready to comment to you. :) Alyssa can't get onto Madeline's blog...we need an invite. Cute blog!! KIT.
Sounds like fun! I can't wait to see the new rooms. By the way, I LOVE your bedding...blue and brown (or pink and brown) are my favorite.
A new mattress, sounds delightful. We sure could use one around here. JC Penney was having a bedding sale last week, it looked like they had some fun things that could work for Madeline, I didn't look too much at the boy stuff. Are you going to let her help pick? Shopping is always so much fun, I miss it!!!
You need to take me shopping. I need help finding good deals! I need to finish our front room, but I need to find some good deals. We'll have to talk, maybe next week.
I get all my furniture from Karen Quist at the R.C. Willey outlet. If you are patient you can find the greatest deals in the clearance center. I got Grace a really cute headboard for $10! That's a rare deal but you can find great things. They also have clearance mattresses.
Kristine, it's funny that you mention JCPenney because I have looked at every department store from Walmart to Dillards (all online ofcourse), and the only place I found stuff that I really liked was at JCP.
Shea, I will have to pay Karen a visit...good idea!
This is my new blogger identity in case you didn't figure that out before. I'm the one who needs your help decorating! If you want to of course. :) I changed it because I didn't want our last name on our blog anymore.

I actually got my boy's bedding set at Target, and it's held up fairly well. Maybe start there, and get accent pieces ase you go along?
I haven't made hardly any money on my blog ads -- but they're kind of amusing sometimes. I have to have 100$ before I can cash in, and after almost 1.5 years of doing them I think I have 20$... Maybe someday...
I've been going to www.moneysavingmom.com -- and people there put things so simply it helps to figure it all out. I highly recommend it. Do you still live in Provo? I know Albertsons has GREAT sales -- learn to shop them (Alberstons was sold in the Bay ARea, so I'm having to make due with Safeway).
Oh, and you're welcome to add me to your sidebar -- put whatever name you want. :)
Melissa,
Your kids and blog are so cute. I will be checking every once in a while, so I hope you don't mind. It's so fun to see how everyone is doing. Take care and you are always invited to our blog (as boring as it is).
