5 1/2 and some of our new rooms

Miss E Bop turned 5 1/2 last Thursday.  Half Birthdays are a big business around this place.  We made the traditional half birthday brownie cake, complete with M&M's.  She got a cool new binder and some markers (from us), a book (from Berk), a pack of gummy worms (from Patton) and the big hit was her very own credit card (visa gift card) from Grammy and Papa.

 This is what Berkley does when you ask her to smile.

 Then if you specify a "Snow White smile" you get one of these.

 Elliott invited our neighbors over to share in the celebration. 

 Here are some pics of Patton's room. We don't have anything up on the walls yet, I am having a canvas made- then we have some vintage A&M football programs to go up in frames.  The theme is vintage sports- if you can tell we have baseball stitches in the tan stripes. I love it!

 Here are a few of the playroom,  I waited to find out what our 3rd one was going to be before doing anything to it. Chris thinks I did a fantastic job not making it too girly ;-) In my defense there is a whole other side that has nothing in it right now waiting for some boy toys....then it won't be too girly (on that side) 

 The girls painted these pics on canvas to decorate

 This is my favorite part of the room. The girls had these chandeliers in our old house, but their rooms are so much bigger here they didn't seem right.  Mom made this table cloth and the cover for the chandelier  cord, I just love it all!

And no post is complete without a Patton picture.  Sweet little baby face- I just kiss him all day long!
