Waiting for the UPS guy!

Any moment today the UPS guy will deliver this book to my front door. Yep, no waiting in long, long lines at midnight for me! I ordered it from Walmart.com way back in May and it was shipped on Thursday. So, if you were one of those crazy all night vampire lovers up all night waiting to buy your book and then up even later reading your book, please don't tell me anything! Especially since I have limited time this weekend because I'm getting ready for girls camp. Maybe I will take my book with me to GC, but I don't know if I will have time there either. Maybe I'll just have to hide in my tent sometimes!!! So...mum's the word everyone until I'm back from Atlanta. I promise to have it completed by then! It will only take me one solid day, but who has one of those anymore!

I've been tagged...

Thanks Amanda for tagging me to take pictures of my house and thanks to Jason for cleaning it up this past week so I wouldn't be too embarrassed to actually do it! Not to mention how excited Jason's mom and sister will be since they have been asking for pictures since we moved in 23 months ago!!!

1. The Kitchen Sink

Ahhh...celebrating the moment of an empty kitchen sink with no dirty dishes! It's not too often we see it like this! Thanks Jason! You're the best!!

2. The toiletDon't zoom in on these pictures...I do have 3 boys you know!

3. The refrigerator

I love my fridge! It's the biggest I could find when we bought it! I figure that way it will hold lots of food for lots of hungry boys and their friends for many years to come! We don't cover the front of the fridge because I'm afraid it will scratch, but we do use the side!

4. What are your kids doing?



Yesterday Nathan followed me around while I took pictures. But today this is how I found him after taking more pictures I forgot to take yesterday! And of course...my older boys are in their PJ's playing video games.




5. What is your favorite room?






















I guess my favorite is the family room/kitchen since I spend all my time in here. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my comfy couches and the fun IKEA shades on the sliding doors. Yes, that's my boys still playing video games and standing WAY TOO CLOSE to the TV! ugh! Oh, and did I mention that we have a pantry now! It's fabulous!




6. Master Bedroom
The first picture is how I actually found the bed today (I almost never make the bed.) But I couldn't just leave it at that! The perfectionist in me was churning I guess 'cause I had to make the bed and take another picture!

7. Dirtiest Room

This one is easy! Since the dishes are done it HAS to be the toy room! But I almost forgot to take a picture before we forced a toy room clean up. Notice picture #2 and how we had to line up every bucket in the hall way and sort out there because the toy room was too dirty to even walk in. This picture didn't do it justice since I took it when we were well more than 3/4 done! When we started you couldn't one inch of carpet...literally!!!
















8. Self Portrait
Haha....not on your life! Not today anyway. It's 4pm and I'm still in my PJ's!

Don't worry Terri & Pia...I'll post more house pictures so you get the total effect. But that's it for now!

I tag Corinne and Rachel...
