some redeco ideas

We just painted our living room and hallway so I have been thinking about a few ideas of what I want to do with my pictures. 

This is what I would like to do down my hall way.  I like the clean straight lines. And I will use black frames too.
 
 
 For my big wall in our living room, since I have been practicing my mural skills, I think I want to try something like the family tree above.  Couple of big differences though, my walls are "cracked wheat" so I don't want my tree to be as bold.  I am thinking just a few shades darker than my walls and have the tree be more of a background behind the picture collage.  I also plan to have a much more elaborate collage set up with all white frames.  I decided I will lay out the way I want the pictures and then I will paint the tree to flow with my lay out.  Hopefully it will be as easy as I make it sound, and that it looks nice!

I also seen this one below with the colored birds and I really liked that, so I thought it may try that too.  But again not as bold, but maybe a pale yellow??

Notice anything different?

A little accessory for her Aunt Rickie's wedding.  She kept telling us she wanted long hair like us for the wedding but we just never grew it out.  So voila! instant long hair! I do plan to make it look a lot nicer for the wedding.  Literally she walked in from playing in the sprinkler and I shoved it on her head.  Once her real hair is curled it will blend and look more uniform. I am proud at how well I matched the color, I was worried because I ordered it off line.  

Being brave the best way she knows how.

Olena has a big issue with getting her nails clipped. This has been a problem since bringing her home and though it has improved a bit in four years, it is still a 45 minute fight just to trim her fingers and toes. She has never been hurt - she just has a problem with it due to her sensory disorder - she is extremely over sensitive when it comes to her feet or hands. I am cutting her nails the other day.... O: do you have to cut the baby one too? M: Yes! O:NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO, not the baby one OK? M: I have to, it's really long O: NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO, its my dragon claw. M: I still have to cut it O: NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO, just leave it ok! Leave them all. I can do it. M: how? you don't know how to use the clippers. O: like this! (as she attempts to put her toes in her mouth and act like she biting the nails off) M: that's just wrong....not to mention disgusting. I need to cut them. Please give me your foot. O: (as nervous as be) just wait a minute.....**big sigh**....(gr...
