I know exactly what you are talking about. Heck, I had a baseball support cup sitting on my dining room table when friend stopped by last week. HAHAHAHAHA All too soon these things will be gone… I am gonna enjoy my diffrent style of decor while it is here.

My youngest is a Lego Maniac and we have creations all over the place.

My husband would DIE if he saw your son’s creation. We have an entire Star Wars room that is his “Man Cave” and there are several Star Wars lego creations in here. Yes, my husband is 3o years old. Ha! He might think I was the bestest wife in the world if I decorated the living room with his delicate labors of love!

Off to look around your blog some more!

I just stumbled upon your blog and saw this entry, LOVE it! I too have a Jacob that has more legos than should be legal. He is WAY into Bionicles these days, and it has long been a sore spot for me that I can't get him to keep his room clean. When we bought this house I painted it and put up these fantastic steel shelves (he wanted an industrial look, again, Bionicles, need I say more?). This post helped me to understand I'm not alone and this IS only temporary. Our babes will be grown up faster than we would wish, and then we'll be trying so hard to remember all of those fantastic lego creations they used to make. Thanks for sharing - most of us only share the pretty photos - I'm glad you were brave enough to share the lego pics too! Ali’s last blog post..HAPPENINGS

Thanks for sharing your "true" decorating photos. It wouldn't be normal around my house without a My Little Pony or story book hidden behind a lamp or gracing the stairway. I wouldn't have it any other way, either. Becki Becki’s last blog post..Chair and a Half

That tablescape cracks me up!! It must go with the name because my Jacob makes these set-ups all of the time! They are all over the house all of the time! They are maddening and heart warming at the same time. Meg’s last blog post..Contradiction

Years ago I listened to a speaker and her message has stayed with me...that our homes tell a story. What story would your home tell if people walked in off the street? That you have a home filled with love and family. What better story would we want our homes to reveal? I hope my home tells the same story. kim’s last blog post..The Pantry

Amen! The kids "decorations" are the best! My daughter used Barbie pants as a window treatment one day and I had to share it with the world! Jenny’s last blog post..Hi Ho Hi Ho, It's Off to Disney We Go

I love this! It is so true that we try to make our homes all decorated and perfect, but since we actually have to live in them (with our families) they don't really come across as perfect to others. As long as they suit our and our families personalities that is really all that matters. I remember a friend of mine telling a story about how when there was a holiday or something her mom would have all the kids frantically clean the house to get it all ready. My friend always asked her mom "they know we live here, that's why they are coming over so why do we have to make it look like we don't?" So true....we do live in our homes and they should reflect it. I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend! Alisa’s last blog post..By his wounds

I hate perfect, sparkling clean houses. I don’t like even going into those places. I would be sure to spill something, break something, whatever.

My house is far from perfect, but friends and family feel comfortable here and visit often.
