meaningless decorating???

So these are the latest projects that I have been working on in the house. It's so nice to have any change on the house and it's fun do do it yourself. So the kids bathroom was a quick and easy one revolving the colors around this shower curtain that i found at Marshalls. I LOVE IT!! Of course i had to throw a little pink in there since Emma does brush her teeth in there. My boys hate it but i don't really mind since they are not the ones that clean it they don't get to decorate it.

The boys room however did take a little longer to finish(actually it's still not all the way done but you can't tell from the pic). When i asked the boys what color I should paint there room here were the responses. Hunter- ummm all black with orange purple and white stripes..
Ben - light blue with purple and pink stripes and flames.
So naturally bright blue with navy stripes is what i went with. Are there really mom's out there who let their kids decide paint colors???
I am happy with the result and the boys like it now although when Ben first walked in when all the tape was still up he looked around and said "are you seriously painting it this color". And their letters are not going on the dresser but on the unfinished wall that will be revealed at a later time. For now it's nice to have a little color in their room and i know deep down they like it. (but it doesn't really matter anyway)
