this wasn't in the plan |but life is still pretty good

Cool bunkbed, huh?

We found it online and drooled over it, then we saw it in person for several hundred dollars less and drooled some more. You know the term, "keeping up with the Joneses"? The Tall One commented that this bunkbed would make the Joneses jealous. Not really what I aim for in life, but isn't it just so cool?

It is not the set we ended up purchasing (though we did come close). Though we are willing to pay a little extra for coolness, this was more than we were willing to pay. The storage drawers are very nice, and if we were looking for a dresser and a bed, we probably would have jumped on this one, but we don't need the extra storage in the boys' room.

So our poor boys will have to suffer with a perfectly normal set of bunkbeds. Sometimes it's rough being responsible.

Are you willing to pay a bit extra for something simply because it's cool?
