Taggie McTaggerson

The object of this "tag" is to show people the way you really live. Here are the rules: Take pictures of the following things below just as they are RIGHT NOW without stopping to clean or straighten.



** One of your favorite places to be**

We love to be at the dining room table having our family dinners and on the weekend...family breakfast. Oh, and we just love to eat in general :) And, I love the wood floor in our house....so easy to clean & Fran put it in.
**The kitchen RIGHT NOW**

I try so hard to keep this GIANT island cleaned off but it is just such a great place to throw things. And, I LOVE our tile floor in the kitchen...Francis did it (what a handy guy to have around)
**Take a picture of yourself RIGHT NOW***

I was watching the kids swimming in their pool out back.
**What the kids are doing RIGHT NOW"

Playing outside in the water....as usual
**The Family Room RIGHT NOW**

Our family room is the "toy free zone"....which means I will not let them keep any toys in there....hard rule to enforce but well worth it! And, if you have seen the size of Kali's room you know they have more than enough room to keep stuff in there.
**Your Bedroom RIGHT NOW**

My bed is hardly ever made
**The toilet RIGHT NOW**

Oops forgot to take this pic....oh well.

**The closet RIGHT NOW**

I love this huge closet....there is even room for Kali's clothes(she does not have a closet in her huge bedroom)
