Cowboy Room Gone

 When Jackson was 4 years old I decorated his bedroom with a cowboy theme.   Shortly after we were moving to Austin.  I just copied the room when we got here.  Larson eventually moved out of his nursery and into this room with Jackson.  I'm going to guess when he was 3 as Logan was then going to take the nursery.
 For about 1 1/2 years Larson had been making plans for a new room.  I just never got to it.
Finally, when he turned 10, he said MOM!!!!  I'm 10 and I have a Cowboy room!
OK Larson, let me take care of it.
One of my favorite things to do is design and redo a kids bedroom.

The plan was to switch out furniture but I decided to just keep what we had and just change the room around.
Took a while for me to decide on the paint color but everyone loved this one.  It turned out great.  I didn't want any kind of theme for the room.  Just real eclectic and boy.

Train table gone but...

Larsons drums stay. (sorry neighbors)

from this to...
this.
Larsons favorite thing in this room is the clock.
Logan has now learned about Roman Numerals.

This is where the dresser is now.  Use to be a chalk board where each kid would sit and learn their letters.
Painting over the wood wall made me a little sad but painting over the chalk board made me a lot sad.

Gone

Made over

and gone.

 New reading area.

 See you Later Alligator trunk may be my favorite thing in the room.

No, I think the Come on In sign is my favorite.
Larson says this reminds him of Cracker Barrel and our family loves cracker barrel.

 The Exit sign is metal and awesome.

 There use to be cowboy pictures of the family where the exit sign is now.

I also added a couple of soccer pictures.
I actually was going to paint the lantern another color but Larson likes it being different.
Easier for me.

This is their gaming table.  Although Larson bought this lamp and has been doing his homework here.  He also bought this globe.  I had one there that was way too babyish for him.

 A couple soccer accents for my soccer boys.

So now Larson has a new room.  He loves it!!!  I love it!
Logan just wanted a Skylander bedroom and a bunk bed with real stairs so he has been not so appreciative. 
 Maybe the Easter Bunny will bring him some Skylander sheets for his bed.  He would love that and you wouldnt be able to see them with the bed made.
