Tag!
I'm not one to be afraid of showing my true colors, so don't expect beauty when you look at these picture. I think it's nice for all of us to show our vulnerable or even our messy sides (whatever our weaknesses are) on occasion. I knew I'd get tagged with this one, but I followed the rules and didn't cheat. These pictures are of how everything looked exactly after I read my friend's tag.
1. The sink. Believe it or not, I cleaned it spotless this morning, but look at it already. I still haven't even painted my window trim!
2. The toilet. Looks like Hyatt used it during his bath. I meant to clean it today, but other cleaning took priority. (You'll notice step stools here and there since I'm a shrimp, but the kids use them too.)
3. The laundry. It's down in my dark dungeon of a storage room, so it gets really dusty, but can you see I labeled my laundry supplies area? I got a label maker...I love organization, when I get the chance to do it.
4. The fridge. I had to show all the magnets. We started collecting them from all the places we go starting about a year ago, so the front (top half) of the fridge is London magnets, the bottom half is kid magnets for them to play with, and the side is London and other places we've been in the last year. Someday I'll make a magnetic travel board so they won't be on my fridge. I have a serious lack of storage in this apartment, so the top of the fridge is doubling as a cupboard, and the garbage is piling up next to it on the floor because Hyrum's been too busy to take it out. The inside is dirty and has bare space since I only bought essentials since returning from England.
5. My closet. Too small to get messy. Hyrum and I share this space. I hide tubs of toys on the top out of the kids' reach so I don't go insane with 10,000 toys in such a small space.
6. Favorite shoes. Cute and comfy, but I don't wear them as much as I'd like because I rarely wear black, and they actually make my feet really stinky so I have to wash the insoles often.
7. Kids and spouse. Two were in the tub, one was playing on the floor, and one is in my belly, so you'll have to look at my picture to see it. Hyrum was watching Casino Royale (the James Bond movie...it has lots of London shots in it where we can say "hey, we've been there").
8. Favorite room. I don't like any of the rooms in this aparment because they're always messy since I don't have enough storage, but we spend the most time together in the living room and I catch up with friends and family on the computer, so here's the room. This is a typical scene, Hy playing with the kids.
9. Dream vacation: travel the US in a motorhome with my family. Most likely won't happen, so that's my retirement dream also.
10. Me. I was cleaning the kitchen, house, dungeon wood shop and doing all kinds of laundry (pillows, blankets, big stuff) all day, so I look like a serious scum.
I tag my sister-in-laws and Marcee. Daisha, you're off the hook because I was just at your house for 3 weeks and it's too clean to be embarrassing, though the Tabby-inflicted toilet seat damage might be interesting to others. :) Go take pictures of those 10 things RIGHT NOW! No cheating, no cleaning or straightening, no photoshop! Be honest!

I love this tag, mostly because I can see my bro's family in there good ole natural state, but man I'm in for a huge imbarressment when I post my tag! CRAP~ You will definitely think I'm a slob!
P.S. you are so beautiful Tiana. just thought you should know that!
I just saw this today and love it! Hilarious!! I can't wait to do it, sort of. My house is pretty messy right now. I hate when people see it that way. But now that I am prego and feeling very sick, I don't clean too often. I know this shall be pretty embarrasing. I can't do it right now though, because my camera battery is dead and I need to buy a new one. I have not gone digital yet. I am off to the store tomorrow, hopefully, to get a battery. Then I will take the pix, get them developed and do the post. Sorry, but it will take a few days. thanks for thinking of me!
You're so sweet to lie about my house being so clean, but you and I know better!
