    Great bedroom decor tips!

    When it comes to decorating your Crossing Anaheim apartment, it can be hard to figure out exactly what you want to do with all of your rooms. One of the hardest places to decorate is the bedroom! You don’t want it to be dull and boring, so it is important to add special touches that give the room a feel that you are going to love! Here are some great tips for decorating your bedroom and making it your own, courtesy of Free Home Decorating Ideas.

    • The furniture should be arranged so that you can walk around the room easily. Having to climb over your partner to get into bed or perform “gymnastics” to avoid stubbing your toe is not very pleasant. Your bedroom should be peaceful and soothing.
    • A good idea in bedroom decorating is to choose peaceful and relaxing artwork. Again, everything should promote rest and relaxation.
    • Choose subtle lighting, peaceful colors, and comfortable furnishings—these encourage a more tranquil and relaxing atmosphere.
    • Your bedroom should be free from clutter. You simply cannot get a good night’s sleep if you are surrounded by chaos like dirty laundry, children’s toys, work papers, or exercise equipment.

          9/11 Memorial Service Conducted by City of Anaheim

          Friday, September 2nd, 2011

          It’s been ten years since the horrific events of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and people all over the country will be coming together to mourn and remember and pray. No doubt everyone in this country was affected deeply by this terrible tragedy, and the marking of the 10th anniversary is a time to reflect on and remember the events of that day.

          The City of Anaheim will be holding a special memorial event on Sunday, September 11th in honor of those who lost their lives ten years ago in the terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C. Taking place at Pearson Park Amphitheater, there will be a special presentation of colors, as well as a speech given by Brad Burlingame, the brother of Charles ‘Chic’ Burlingame III, who was piloting the Flight 77 plane that eventually crashed into the Pentagon on September 11th. Everyone in the community is encouraged to attend this special event.

          As well, it’s always a good idea to take time to think about and give thanks to the hard working men and women of our Armed Forces, volunteer fire departments, and police departments here in Orange County. These brave individuals put their lives on the line every day for citizens in our country, and they deserve our thanks.

          If you know of any other nearby memorial events that are going on in Anaheim and surrounding areas, please feel free to leave a comment and share with us.
