The Game Room

I have been slowly working on  a little project, and with it being end of the school year, and with all the activities that go along with it, it seems to be taking me a lot longer than I anticipated, so in the meantime, I wanted to share with you our game room.  You truly get spoiled when it comes to house sizes in Texas, and newer homes not only have a game room, but a media room as well..spoiled!!!  My house was built in 2002, and it is one of the smaller models in the neighborhood...that's now saying much, being that this house would be considered big back in Florida.  The game room is located upstairs, next to my kids bedrooms, which works perfectly, because some times, the first thing they want to do when they get up, is start playing with all of their toys or game consoles.

I find that this room is still a work in progress.  Maybe because it's always a constant mess (I made sure to take these pictures right after I finished cleaning, and the kids were in school)  The storage baskets all came from Target, I started with the tree matching ones, and when those got filled to the brim, I bought two larger ones with lids.  I now make sure to make a trip to my nearest donation center when the baskets with lids start not to be able to close.

I can't believe I ever did without a game room, this room keeps most of the kids messes in here, it also feels like it's a second family room, because we like to hang here and watch movies with the kids as well.  I also love that it has a big window to let light in, which, most game rooms do not.  

Hope you enjoyed my little tour of our game room, I will be back later this week to share a project I have been working on for the past few day.  Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend.
