A peak inside our game room.

I had a couple requests to see our “playroom”/”game room” and being that playrooms was Andrea’s August “Come on in!” and the Home Organization “Come on in!” was yesterday, it was just worked out perfectly to post this today. So, if you’re here for the link-up from Come on in…Home Organization scroll down some more. After you read this one of course 🙂

We’ve lived in the same house since I was in Kinder. This house is HOME. Being that we’ve lived in the same house for so many years we are one of the few homes in our neighborhood without a media room. There was no such thing when we moved into our home. It’s so crazy how things change. So…our game room was our play room, media room, spare bedroom, you name it. When you walk up the stairs, this is what you see:

And I moved towards the entrance of my brothers room so you could see a little more.

And here’s our sofa. See that corner seat there? That’s my spot for catching up on my tv shows!

Usually, I am super un-creative. This is where I call myself a left-brainer. Tell me to organize something, i’m all for it. But telling me to get creative on a school project and i’d probably rather….do laundry. Or I don’t know, something boring!

However, my mom is one of those super creative people (she was an interior designer when we were all younger and LOVED it) that it takes her so. dang. long. to finish any project because she just over thinks it or the colors aren’t right or she just doesn’t like it…whatever it is she has SO many unfinished products. However, she knows if she gives me a project it might take me a couple days but i’ll get it done. She was tired of seeing a bare wall in the game-room so she gave me the task of doing something with it. And this is what I came up with. And i’m super proud of it. *Pats self on back now*

The little pictures are baby pictures, well more like toddler pictures. And the bigger ones are pictures of us now. Funny thing is I found all “nature settings” but they weren’t taken at the same time. You go, creative Molly! 😉
I’m allllllllll about quotes. I joke about how my mom is going to hate my house one day because everything I like she usually hates. This framed quote that I found says: “The Will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.” LOVE. IT. I made it a growing up type theme. ps. this is right above my “molly corner”!

Mom’s normal obsession is usually roosters. They’re EVERYWHERE in our house, but recently she’s found a love of peacocks, I think it’s probably more about their color though.

Back in that little corner sits my keyboard from when I was a wee-little tot. And the door to the upstairs patio. And of course the computer that nobody uses, because…laptops.

Here’s the tv. This is where dad and I watch the OC, Rick, Ryan, and Mom watch Chicago Fire. You name it. Oh, yeah and that open door on the right is my room.

Now flip yourself around. You’re looking back towards the entrance of the game room.

And this is outside the door to my room. A Christmas card picture. And one to be filled above for this year!

And that totally “organized” junk closet? Yep, still there.

And that’s it for our ol’ game room. Now that we are all older and don’t need it to play, we just use it as a media room. And it works for us when we need it!
