Play Room

Summer Project No. 1 - complete

There is a new favorite room in our house; the play room! It was Tony's office (which is moved to the basement) and it was very dark brown that we never messed with after buying the house.

He has joked for our whole 18 years together that our relationship is built on embarrassment- specifically the embarrassment that I experience due to his inappropriately hilarious behavior. He is the life of every party. Everyone knows him, and no one forgets him. In an attempt to sneak away from any social gathering and get home to my pajamas and books, I am usually slouching in his shadow, rolling my eyes but also laughing at his antics on the inside.
