A Few Pictures For You

After showing you this picture…you know I just couldn’t let it rest. I HAD to show you the after shots too. (So you could sleep better at night knowing that I don’t live in that kind of chaos…usually.)  :)

Oh, and in the interest of explaining myself and giving you all excuses for why that guest room got so messy…here are a few of my disclaimers:

In the winter, that room gets REALLLLLLY cold. If we have guests, they stay in our other guest room. So, I rarely go in there during the winter, except to throw something in there to put away later and then run back to the fireplace. That happens for months, until the room then looks like this. 

Also, the matress got flopped over recently because the boys saw it in there and immediately flopped it over so that they could enjoy some sumo wrestling and etcetera. ‘Nough said.

And, all of my HeavenlyHomemakers business stuff is in there, and again, in the winter I just go quickly grab what I need, thaw it out and ship it. Everything sort of gets scattered in that process but I’m too cold to care. (It is so weird to talk about fireplaces and being cold now that it is NOT cold.)

Okay, need more excuses? Because I can give you more…

Nah, let’s just get on to the pictures.

Again, here’s the before picture (like you needed to see THIS again…)

And after spending a couple of hours re-arranging and re-organizing…

Now don’t you feel refreshed and feel like you can sleep better now?! (I’m sure Char is sleeping better in there than she would have otherwise!)

While I’m showing you pictures of how busy I’ve been…here are some pictures of most of my baking for the Farmer’s Market yesterday. I spent the entire day baking…and it was a BLAST!! I LOVE TO BAKE!

After I baked these cinnamon rolls…I slathered them with frosting. I had five pans, and they all sold EASILY! Everything else sold well too…and we had a super fun time. 

Now, I just need to recover and get geared up for next week!! Whew!
