And you’ll be with Totoro Totoro Totoro Totoro

Posted in Art, Life @ The Grand, Simon Wesley — 5 Comment(s)

One of the first decisions Jason and I made about “when we have kids” is that we would have a Totoro-themed nursery (his idea). Finishing the nursey was truly a collaborative effort by Simon’s grandparents, and we couldn’t be more happy with how it turned out. Grandpa Carlson painted the walls. Grandma Carlson made the curtains. Grandma Morehead made the bedding. And the wall hangings were a team effort--Grandma Carlson made the pattern, Grandpa Morehead cut the wood (and spearheaded the installation), and Grandma Morehead painted them. They each did such an amazing job, and I am so thankful to have such a special room for our little guy.

    It was definitely our pleasure. It was special to spend time in prayer while working on the projects for you, Renae and our little one before and after Simon’s birth. Hope you have lots of fun in your special room, Simon. Love Grandma M

    This is so cute.  And perhaps even moreso, cool.  And great for beyond the baby years (okay, months) too.

    Love it! So much more creative than plain ole Winnie the Pooh. Yes, your babe definitely has the coolest room in town!
