  • The Sister Suite

    Did I tell you about our tiny little Elkanah House with a huge garage?

    Just perfect for converting into the sister suite.

    In the pic the curtains are laying on the window seals waiting to be hung.  The chief hung them for me and they are so pretty but I'm too lazy to retake the pic.  What in the world, right?

    Conversion complete.

  • Looks great!  Love the colors and the decor.  I didn't realize that your daughters name was Emrie.  I used to babysit a girl and her name is Emry.  I've never met any other girls named that until I came across yours :)   Such a cool name!

  • @redladybug18 - Thanks.  The girls picked the colors.  The room is huge.  They all have a full/queen size bed and dressers.  Everything fits with room to dance/play!  :D  

    Emrie's name means strength.  My husband's name (Brian) means strength also.  We didn't find out the gender of the baby.  We wanted it to be a surprise.  The week before she was born I had a dream that we had a girl and named her Emrie.  When we figured out the meaning we were sure that was the name. 

  • @TrentTribe - That is so neat about the dream. I had dreams while pregnant with all my children - dreams that came true regarding their gender. The room is fantastic!!! WOW so nice and big and love that there is still room to twirl and dance :)

  • wow now that's a room. i was trying to figure out the layout and discovered that all the beds face into the middle of the room with lots of room to dance about....how glorious. i like how they each have a special space...especially with their names up there! very nice.

  • you already know this but i just LOVE it! and the girls too!

  • Big room = Big beds = COOL!

    What did you do to the extra room in the house?  Study/office?

    I also love that turquoise blue color!

  • I am totally in love with the girls room!  Terri said it was really neat and I am now probing Chad into turning our garage turned playroom into a huge bedroom for the boys!  We shall see!  :)

  • @fourkidsonemom - @mytoesareblue - @betheelou - @ToniJill - Thanks guys!  It was an inexpensive solution to our extra bedroom/space problem.  The now empty bedroom is going to be a guest room/tv room. The Chief did most of the work himself (the rest of the Tribe helped of course!) with the exception of the exterior wall.  We hired a friend to help us with that.  If you are in our area I def recommend him!  The sisters chose their own colors.  They plan to use a lot of corals and pinks as accent colors.  They have a long list for the thrift stores.  :)

  • @nicole509 - And we love you!  :)
