" If thick and heavy the kids and saying that there's enough storage here you know there's always something you want to put away the store yeah and that's really wonderful and look. And effect on here. -- in the comparable and at my site when you got kids. Inevitably evident and that sure. So in this area is tied together this is a great height. It works well with the window area and it's always nice to have a lamp it just -- everything up and bring that together."

" They key upstairs is the openness of the cathedral ceilings yes absolutely the architect. Really good job of using the body.

And I just wanted to yeah exactly. And of course because will be looked at as a project sooner you set it up with -- stuff."
" And -- really like about it is the design yet it's still looks like it is and special piece of furniture yet it was made -- this area. Now what have you done in the I can't bedrooms while. Barbie who isn't here wow yeah. Again very colorful. And what I can't hit a decorator sheets is -- The window treatment here the issue season -- float so. Actually got this that that's already sound exactly like this all I have to do is put them through the wrought. And the great thing about it is that it's a twin this is a twenty. They put two twins up and you're saving yourself a little time and money in my interview born with a look you could still. What's the of the Quebec and Canada one think I had an extra channel. From windows my house yes and I thought that would mean I decided to use this over top mania. Actually over top of a plastic. Shower her power curtain. So -- any kids that they can paintings after you get stickers and pictures right now. Now sometimes we complain when they yes stick things around -- stickers are excellent work anyways don't know much about five. It's pretty me it's fast and sure it -- built curly."
" Now wrote this ten by eight right again here you get the sense of the volume because of the cathedral ceiling treatments."

" You know this hall doesn't work almost like family room nothing that makes for me is. The aren't they expect three of these lightolier fixtures here and another one over there and it helps enlarge the space even more."
" And I think -- but this is what I love this is really I think the center. In this area sure and Michelle told me that all of her children how to use the computer -- even the youngest."
