Each Friday I will be posting a picture, or more (because I love pictures) of proof that a family, not perfectly placed vases, live in my home. I'm a big believer that since I have children in my home, the home should be a kid-friendly place.
I know that childhood is a short, fleeting interlude, and when my birds have flown the nest, I will likely crave the times when they were under my wing. I was actually choking up as I typed that last sentence.
So, to remember, to rejoice and to revel in the luxury of having a family - I present, Friday: A Family Lives Here. Want to know where the idea came from?
Will you join me? Let's discover the memories we want to remember for years to come.
Exhibit 1:
Why are there fluffy pillows on my stairs???
That is a very good question.
A question two creative, mischievous girls would love to answer....
...via a demonstration.
Would you like to join in on the evidence gathering? Please leave a comment, link up to your blog, and add my widget that the lovely Leigh vs. Laundry created for me. I can't wait to visit your posts and see what's going on in your homes.
Cheers!

Can't participate. A family DOES live here but I don't let the kidlets do ANYTHING inside to mess up my chi. But I look forward to other families showing me what I'm missing ;)
I linked my blog post from today. I could not get your button to work though. Blogger kept telling me there were HTML errors?
Lucky - maybe I need you to come organize my home better. ;-)
Atomic Mom - Whoo hoo! I am so sorry - I think I have it fixed. Today is the fixing bugs day. ;-)
Ooooh how fun!!!! Would love to join in the fun :) Off I go in search of my mess (VERY EASY to find) :) Thanks for inviting me :)
Just posted :) I can't believe I posted pictures of my mess!!! ha ha ha Can't wait for next week!! FUN! Thanks again!
This is a great idea! I will start taking more photos--I have lots of evidence. :)
It's up. Love the idea. Hugs.
P.S. I hope my kids don't see the pictures on my post. I won't let them jump down the stairs.....we have one child that's very accident prone.
Kelly - I LOVE IT!
Emily - Can't wait!
I hope my kids don't see the pictures on your post because I won't let them do exactly that. We have one that's far too accident prone for such things. :)
THis makes me wish my camera wasn't broken. We used to jump off my grandma's stairs onto a huge (6'x2') round pillow - those were the days.
That is SO fun. No one is home at my house today, so we are BO-RING. But I enjoyed everyone else's.
cabesh - good idea. I had to capture the moment, before I made them dismantle this ER activity. ;-)
Mrs. Organic - I can't wait for your camera to be fixed too...and eagerly await your finished quilts too.
Dalene - I never imagine your home to be boring. It's impossible.
Great shots....I will be sure to check back often. Great idea.

Those pictures had me cracking up. I would post some messy pictures of my house, but I actually picked it up before I went to bed last night!
Great idea! I always like to see the reality of life for families. Not always the perfectly captured Martha Stewart moments.

Tiffany - thank you! Hope you do join us.
Dixie Mom - thanks! They crack me up! Hope to see you next week.
Priscilla - loved your pics - I went ahead and added you to the current post via mr. linky - CHEERS!
Oh that looks like fun! And what a fun project you're starting. Thanks for popping by my cupcake post:D
Looks like your girls had a great time and sounds like a super fun idea. Thanks for stopping by and I'll have to get my camera snapping.
Teddy - we love cupcakes.
Tracy - thank you! Can't wait to peek in on your Friday post!
