Tag your it

My friend Kalya got this tag on her blog and I thought it was really cool so I tagged myself.

The rules are you have to take the pictures as is (no fixing up or picking up before you take the pictures). This was fun.
1 Kitchen or Sink




My sink was really disgusting so I opted for the kitchen. My bar usually looks like this because thats were we all lay everything instead of putting it where it goes. I really wanted to clean off the bar before I took this picture but I am trying to stick to the rules.
2. The bathroom









this the downstairs bathroom that we just finished. It is in pretty good shape today. I painted the floor with concrete paint and love it. I still have some things to do to finish this one up but it is at least workable.

3. The closet









Thank goodness for walk in closets. And thank goodness for vaulted ceilings. I have to seperate levels of clothes on my side. No, I don't have that many clothes. The second layer is off season clothes for Jacob and I. I try to organize this closet, but there is no hope. It stays cluttered. It should be called a "wiggle around all the crap to find what you need closet".
4. Self Portrait






Sooooo do not like this picture, but I chose to do only one shot instead of taking 50 and still not liking any of them. What a "chessy" grin. I should have tossed my rule and took the 50 pictures in hopes for a better one.




5. Favorite shoes

I got these for Christmas last year and I love them. They are so warm and fuzzy. And sometime in the morning I feel like a monster so they are perfect for my mood
6. My favorite room
My living room downstairs is my favorite room. I painted it yellow which makes me feel warm and happy when I walk in here. It is big and there is plenty of light even though it is a basement. One day this will be our theatre room complete with projector big screen and movie posters on the walls.
Today it is a little cluttery which makes me not enjoy it so much.
7. Fridge outside and in.
The outside of my fridge is pretty kid friendly on the bottom half. John likes taking the letters off and throwing them all over the floor. My calendar is my life saver and I would be so unorganized without it.
The inside is pretty messy. Yes there are 4 gallons of milk in my fridge. I usually buy 6 and it is gone in less than 10 days. I wish I could say there are more fruits and veggies in there.
8. Laundry room
My laundry room is a tiny room off the kitchen. It is always cluttered with laundry. My trash needs taking out but I hate taking out the trash. Don't ask me why. It piles up to overflowing until I can't get anything else in there and am forced to take it out. It would be lighter in here, but it needs a new lightbulb and I haven't gotten around to changing in in probably 6 months. One day!!!!!
9. My favorite vacation
My favorite vacation that I have been on would be the beach. I love the beach. I could live there. I love the sand and the sounds of the ocean. Not to crazy about going out too far in the water, but I love everything else. I love that my kids love the beach as much as I do. One day Jacob and I will retire and live at the beach. Preferable Gulf Shores.
My favorite dream vacation (I have several). First I would love to go to Hawaii. Again the whole beach thing. I think I would love living there. (Jacob could get a job with Dog the Bounty Hunter) Sunny and warm year round ahh. No wonder when you say Hawaii it sounds like paradise.
Second I would love to go to Europe, Greece, Italy, Germany, China (really anywhere foreign that exposes me to a different culture. I have never been anywhere out of the US except for the Bahamas. Would like to experience another country one day.
OKAY. I TAG JESSICA, CHEYENNE, ALAINA, AND MARTA, AND ANYONE ELSE THAT WOULD LIKE TO BE TAGGED. HAPPY PICTURE TAKING.

Wow! Look at all these posts! I definitely like the tag. I'll try to get to it in the next few days. Next time we're in Utah, we have to go to Thanksgiving Point. Great place for pictures!

Love this post, except that you tagged me! Okay, tomorrow I am off, so I will get the camera out. I love the pink slippers and it was fun to see some of your new basement too.

Alaina said...

I love your slippers and house! I see I'm tagged by you and Jess so I'll get my camera out. Are you sure I can tidy up a little? :)

What a great idea! I have got to try it. Hope I'm brave enough not to clean off the bar.

So did you take care of the light bulb? Thanks for playing along!
