Brooklyn's Desk

One day I couldn't find Brooklyn. She was in her room with the door closed with all her coloring stuff on the floor. I asked her why she was in there and she said that Dylan was trying to eat her crayons. I decided that for her birthday I would get her her own desk to do all her coloring on. I put the word out to family and friends to keep theirs eyes out for a desk at garage sales. Grammy and Papa found a perfect desk and Curt and I (ok, mostly Curt) refinished it. The desk idea turned into quite the family affair. We did the desk, Grammy and Papa did the chair, Uncle Jim painted the knobs and Auntie Shanna made a cork board for her to hang all her creations on. What a great birthday gift!!

Uncle Jim did a fantastic job painting the knobs! I LOVE them!



"Love, Uncle Jim" So cute!




The finished product!


She loves having her own space.

"Nope Dylan, you can't reach!"
