The Nursery is Officially PainTed!:)

Please forgive me if I don't make much sense right now....It's been such a great & crazy weekend.  I'm pretty much spent;0)  It's one of those thing--if I don't sit down I'm fine.  Well, I'm sitting down!'

On Thursday, Russell & I decided to get the room primed & ready for the weekend.  My awesome MIL (mother-in-law) had graciously accepted our offer to come up & help us paint the nursery.  See...we are headed down to Texas this Friday to see our awesome family down there, and also get our wonderful crib.  I know it sounds crazy, going to Texas to get a crib.  This crib was the crib my nephew & niece used, and now will be Little Rock's crib.  And it will continue to get passed down, so there is plenty of sentimental value-not to mention it is beautiful!

Anyways--painting!...Yes so here is Russell priming the Purple Walls:)

 
And then after working Saturday afternoon with MIL & Russell, & then some more on Sunday-the nursery was complete!   Here is the a before-and-after picture of the Purple Wall-that-is-no-More-Purple.
 

Below you can see the valence (window covering:) that is from the crib theme set that we are going with for the nursery.  Also, you can see the top of the AMAZING chair that we purchased TODAY that goes perfectly with the colors!
 
And lastly, a picture that best shows the nursery so far.  I'm completely stoked with how it all turned out.  I'm not a big mural kind of person...but I did want to do some fun artsy things.  I think the colors look awesome, the grass turned out perfect, and this chair is pretty much the comfiest thing ever (thanks John!)!!!! 

 
Ahhhhhhhh............Welcome to Our Little Rock's Nursery!

Neat! Looks great. So I Imagine you will continue to update the mural as your baby grows? You know, the grasses and saplings will grow along with her/im?
