Banana-fana-fo-femma, mi-my-mo-memma, EM-MA!
Here's some of the fun we've been having with Emma visiting:
1. Painting:
For months I have been trying out different colors in Daphne's room, but hadn't found colors I liked, or gotten the motivation to just get it done. Apparently, all I needed was a sister!!!
Which color?
I eventually went with a "bella mint" green on the bottom, and "winter oak" (kind of a lavender-ish color) on top.
We surprised Arthur with the finished room when he got home from Scout Camp, where he was doing the Astronomy merit badge with the boys.
2. Silly & Sad: (mostly silly)
Daphne wrote her name in this dust on the vanity in the downstairs bathroom, and took a picture of it. She was being silly, but it's actually rather SAD!
After I saw this picture, I went and dusted that vanity.
3. Harry Potter 6
We have been anxiously awaiting the release of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Arthur had all the previews downloaded on the computer, and sometimes we would hook the laptop up to the TV and we'd watch preview after preview of this movie. We had big plans to dress up and go to a midnight showing, but by the time we got our act together to buy the tickets, all seven showings were sold-out. We settled for a Friday afternoon and dinner afterwards. It was GREAT! Can't wait till the DVD comes out. And, just for the record. I am DEFINITELY getting midnight tickets when the 7's come out. And I think I will wear a shirt that says, "I Luv Neville" in glow-in-the-dark letters.
4. Light Saber Duels
How cool is Aunt Emma?!

Love the dual tone room color! I missed out on the midnight showing too - ours were sold out. I went alone the next morning because Mike said he didn't want to go but then he got off early and came home after I had seen it all ready to take me - bummer but it's the thought that counts!
Daphnes room looks great! I love green in bedrooms.
