I get lazy about blogging in the summer. :) That's great that your school system does all that. I don't blame you for wanting to let your son finish out his high school years there. You won't regret it, I'm sure. It's so nice to have a school you're happy with and even nicer when they go the extra mile. I love shiplap!!! I've been following along on Instagram and love what you're doing! We need to get those shirts from Magnolia Market that say #shiplap. :) Lisa @ Texas Decorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08324912792298425253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008124157424133980.post-84807302512749569362016-07-30T21:12:44.936-04:002016-07-30T21:12:44.936-04:00We are going to put some shiplap in our family roo...We are going to put some shiplap in our family room and I'm also hoping to put some in our master bed room too.

I bet it relieves your worries to know that he is getting what he needs.<br /><br />The shiplap--what exactly is it? I know it is wooden planks but would you ask for it by that name at the big box home improvement stores? I really like the look it gives. I hope your project turns out like you want it to and that you like the final product. I could see it in my living room, but it's a big commitment. Maybe I could fine wallpaper in that design! Then I could just strip it if I didn't like it!Naomihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10379773575012678754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008124157424133980.post-60809317149428771302016-07-27T20:50:27.673-04:002016-07-27T20:50:27.673-04:00Can't wait to see your shiplap wall!

The idea of a mentor for freshman is an amazing idea. My son could have probably have benefited from that. High school goes fast - my son is beginning his senior year - I can't believe it! Good luck to your son!

I love the ship lap, but we only have one more room to do and it is the bathroom and it will not work in there. I like watching Fixer Upper and they love putting the ship lap up. Maybe in our next home we can have it. I think it looks great in a room.

Ours don't start for two more weeks around here. I think it's great that you have such great schools where you live that can give him the help he needs. I have thought about adding ship lap to our house too. I would like to add insulation to the front rooms in our house and then do ship lap to cover the holes. Since our home is stone we can't insulate from the outside like it is normally done. We don't have the money right now so we will probably sell our house before we ever get around to it?!?!
