So here is a small peek at our sun room. John actually calls this room the "Mans Den" because it has become his smoking room (cigars and pipes are his hobbies now). So in attempt to go with his room theme, I put out a bunch of his old political pictures and Maids stuff. He used to intern for Congressman Scott McInnis (who is now running for CO Governor) so he was able to go to Washington DC and help many Republican campaigns while he interned. Here are some famous people with him (including Bob and Elizabeth Dole, the guy who Robin Williams plays on Good Morning Vietnam - Adrian Cronauer, and tons of Medal Honor Recipients)...
We also put out tree with lights out here so when it is dark or we have a sleep over out here, we can have "twinkle lights" as Ashlyn calls them from You've Got Mail...
We found this chair and matching bench one day by the pool in someones driveway with a Free sign on it. All we had to do was spray paint them and they are awesome...
Here are our college diplomas and some newspaper and magazine articles that our business has been in. Our family really enjoys the old school Super Mario Brothers collection so we have been playing it on this small TV out there - who needs a Wii when you have a cool Super Nintendo, right...
And then there is our winter entertainment for the smaller boys - the $20 trampoline.... in the corner by our old patio table that still needs some spray paint and new chairs (a treasure we hope to find at our neighborhood garage sale in a few weeks!)...
When I can borrow the wide angle lens again I can will take a picture of the entire room...I am hoping to have an open house soon so everyone can come see it all in person. We have a few small things to finish up...but, our new windows came yesterday and so did our new blinds for the living room. Check out Select Blinds if you are looking for some - we had to special order some because our windows are so big and for both windows it was only $92 for everything, including shipping! That is a steal if you shop around and they look awesome.
