Question: Does this look like part 2 of the wedding reception? That's what it's supposed to be. I got motivated to shoot part 2 earlier than planned. Had to retrieve some drinking glasses from the studio and got totally distracted. Happens all the time. Instead of getting the glasses and returning to the video shoot, I created a room for Julian and Jacob, and recreated the dorm rooms in the A-frame house.
Julian and Jacob had a room when I first started doing stories. It was much bigger than this. This is all the room they need. I kept their Winnie-The-Pooh theme. Julian's not that thrilled, but Jacob loves his Pooh bear.
I found the bed frames on ebay a couple of years ago. I added the cushion and made the Pooh bedding.
Months later, I ran across Pooh items at the thrift store. They had tons of these little boxes still in their original packaging. I thought it would make the perfect dresser for the boys.
It's really a note pad holder with a little drawer for paper clips and other office supplies.
There's Pooh Bear!
The boys have their fish tank. Below are the gifts their Auntie Paulette gave them; Lincoln Logs and Tinker Toys.
I kidnapped the boys from the reception so they could take a look at their recreated room. This room is located right next to Rod and Danielle's bedroom. Originally it was going to be their bathroom. It will serve multiple purposes as needed. In my crystal ball I see a beautiful laundry room.
About a month ago, I briefly turned the top level of the A-frame house into dorms for the college crew. I never got a chance to take pictures because I changed it so quickly into Shantavia's new place. Well, since everything else is being used for multiple purposes, why not the A-frame house? So the top level will be the following: Darius and Chang's office, Shantavia's living area, dorm rooms, real estate offices for Sunni and her sister-in-law, and offices for interior designers, Vanessa and Lydia. I am still thinking about the bottom level.
"Are you ready?" (Faith)
"Just about. Let me finish putting my books away." (Kim)
"What did you guys end up doing last night?" (Kim)
"We just ended up going to see the new MIB movie." (Faith)
"How was babysitting?" (Faith)
"Fine. I was able to get a lot of studying done. I definitely needed that with this test coming up next week. Can you check to see if Jasmine is ready?" (Kim)
"Did I hear my name?" (Jasmine)
"Oh, so you are ready. Cute pants. I may have to borrow those one day." (Kim)
"Luckily for me you can't wear my pants." (Jasmine)
What is it with these dolls and their shoes. Jasmine told me to get a picture of her shoes.
"Okay. I'm ready. My shoes are in the other room." (Kim)
"We need to stop by the store so I can get the $20 my brother owes me." (Jasmine)
"One day we won't be broke college students and we won't have to run around town looking for money" (Faith)
"From your mouth to my empty wallet." (Kim)
The ladies laugh as they head out the door to go shopping with the little money they do have.
