charleigh is the only one who really cared.

it always reminds me of making paper dolls with my mom when i was a little girl.

leah has a new room. a pre-teens dream. all her own. no more sharing with little girls.
we have a new living room. new furniture. a sectional. beige. looking around we have beige walls, beige carpet, beige lazy boy and now beige furniture. huh.
so were off to ikea on saturday morning to buy something with color. pillows, and some other amazing treasures im sure. leah needs some new ikea stuff as well, neon shes asking for.
