Annie wrote about this yesterday, but I want to give you a slightly different perspective. For Griffin's 8th birthday we celebrated by giving him a completely overhauled room. And by "we" I mean Annie.
She took our spare bedroom (also known as Grandma's room) and transformed it into Griff's new room. He's been rooming with Cooper via the bunk bed for all of Coop's life. The times they are a changin'.
She went with a skateboard motif. She bought some signs, made some posters, and that's about where I would have quit. She was just getting started. She made two shelves out of skateboards. She made a headboard. I didn't know you could do that. I'm still not sure it's legal.
She painted the outline of a skateboard fella on the wall and there was a matching quilt special made by grandma. This room is awesome. When I came home there was still the same general non-skateboard theme to our room...I'm just saying that I've never really had a room this cool. I'm a little jealous.
I have the best wife and Griff has the best mom - that's the bottom line.
I'm remembering how excited you & Brian were when you got your stagecoach/bunkbed...you wore a cowboy hat to bed for three weeks!
