A day in the life...TAG

I'm sure that all of our Family and Friends have been hoping for a candid look into our lives (and if not, well, I don't blame you -we aren't very exciting people). After arriving home very late last night, alone with both kids, I crashed. But after grudgingly getting Jocelyn to school this morning one of the first things I did was get online, and now I am wishing I wouldn't have. So here's to Kara...thanks for TAGGING me. I have to honestly admit that I was going to put this off until later (like next week or maybe just forget), but I new that wouldn't be very fair, but lucky for me we haven't been home long enough to make any huge messes and I just washed my sheets so the bed is of course made! I'm not terribly excited for this and don't want to do this again, I hate these kind of things...but apparently this is how it goes...you have to take pictures of the following things, and you have to do it right away. No straightening, cleaning or wiping your child's nose. Then you tag five others (I'm skipping this rule though, I think this is a cruel game)

1. The Kitchen Sink

Just this mornings dishes and some fresh fruit. The fruit was soaking because Morgan thought it a grand idea to send me home with suitcases full of spuds, corn and fruit. Needless to say the spuds did great but the suitcases now smell like corn and rotten fruit. The peaches and pears were really smashed and needed to be cleaned! (I don't recommend this)



2. Refrigerator

Okay, I admit that I like to clean my refrigerator and I am a mad women about putting things back in "the right places" (just ask Morgan, I'm sure he'll roll his eyes).



3. The Laundry Room

This is as good as the laundry room gets, it's kind of a catch all for the misc. things I have no idea where to put. Luckily the camera does a fabulous job hiding all the "stuff"

4. Toilets

Our lovely toilets. Who really wants to see our toilets? So Morgan's/the office is first, then the powder room, the kids Jack-n-Jill and then our master! These are pretty clean. This is Morgan's only chore (he would rather clean the toilets than do the dishes) So I feel pretty lucky there, I hate cleaning these, plus he makes most of the messes he should clean them...right?

5. Favorite Room & 6. Bedroom

Our Master bedroom. Also my favorite room, mostly because of the awesome bed (it's a Tempur-Pedic) and that generally there are not any kids there, just peace and quiet and a good book!


7. Closet

I have to say that I really think the closet looks much better in person than in photo, everything looks overly cluttered via photo, but hey it's a closet!



8. Favorite Shoes

My favorite shoes; two very sexy Italian leather heels, that I rarely wear, and my favorite BORN flip flops!

9. Kids or spouse..NOW
Well, Beckton is the only one at home (bedsides me) Jocelyn is at school and Morgan is in California!


10. Self Portrait

Okay, it stinks to do a self portrait. I look awful, somehow when I get a closeup I get squirrel checks, go figure! At least I was somewhat ready for the day!

Yeah for getting tagged!

Aw, thanks for humoring me! I promise not to tag you again. I can't believe how clean your house is, I'm so jealous. Love your bedroom, that bed looks awesome.

Robyn...YOU may hate tags, but it sure is fun for US to catch a glimpse into your life! I gotta take a cue from you and have Bryce clean the toilets...maybe then he'd learn to "aim" better :)
