Have I ever showed you our basement?? Probably not b/c honestly I'm hardly ever down there. But it is nice and cozy in the winter because of the stove over in the corner. So I'm starting to think about painting it.
It desperately needs some paint. The previous owners had the walls covered with stuff (surround sound speakers, shelves, pictures, lights) you name it...they had it on the wall. So now there are tons of holes which my father spackled for us (some were over 2 inches in diameter). Any color suggestions??? I'm not going to do white or khaki. Half of my house upstairs is khaki.
Do you see the wall behind that chair (the chair that Ryan acquired during college for 5 bucks and he refuses to ever let us get rid of it!!! He let me put it in a yard sale once but he said he had to get $30 for it. Hello....like anyone would by $30 for that chair. So now we affectionately call it "the green chair of doom" and I have come to terms with the fact that it will be a part of my decor until the day I die)? That wall seriously needs some paint. We had to spackle almost the entire thing.
And this is the bar that we acquired with the house. In the last 9 months we've used it once during a super bowl party we had. So I decided to come up with a new use for it.....
Ta Da!!!! It's the craft bar! We've used it every single day since I transformed it!! Christian loves it!
Look what we made today! McKenna's is the one on the right. Please notice how she wrote her "name" in the bottom left hand corner of her paper. I think it's adorable!
Just wanted you to see how truly green the "green chair of doom" really is. I know...you're jealous. And that gives you a good look at the rugs I have down there that I'm planning on keeping. So the paint needs to sort of go with them.
And here is our very serious Wii player! He's good at it and loves it, so we have to limit his time on it. He always asks permission before playing and I think that overall it's been a really positive thing for us to have. It allows me to take a nap occasionally :) 
And just because I know you're dying to see what Christian is playing...here it is!! He asked me to take these pictures and to share them with you.
Your welcome :)
