I’m back! I’m sure you haven’t missed me in your busy
lives…but I’ve missed sharing these little bits of real with you! My life
turned all sorts of crazy about a month ago, and my normal got even more
insane! I will take it because its been fun and I’m finally getting to embrace
some home remodels I’ve been dying to do…but I also have to remind myself to “just
keep breathing”, because it’s chaos!!
By not getting to the blog lateley (pictures have been sitting
here waiting to be posted all this time!) I realized that it fits perfectly
with the blog theme…life is busy and messy and chaotic, and sometimes it takes
a month to complete something. So I’m going to stress less about the fact I’m
so behind and instead embrace the fact that I’m finally getting to it. Better
late than never, right?!
In this time I’ve been away, I’ve also been rethinking the
blog direction a teeny bit…I know that not all people struggle with messy
houses, and by just sharing pics we aren’t really connecting. Bummer right!? I
want to connect and share and live right there with you…so, we are gonna keep
sharing pics of real life homes BUT we are also going to delve into each
person’s version of messy. Cause messy
can be literal or figurative…or in some cases, maybe both! This doesn’t have to
be anything crazy or dramatic, and for you maybe it is your home; or maybe its
your kid who never remembers table manners or refuses to use a comb, or the car
that you practically live out of that is always a disaster, or maybe it’s not a
physical mess but something less tangible, like a relationship that’s always
off.
No matter who we are or what our life looks like, we all
have “messy”, and messy is different for each of us. So on this blog we are
going to get even more real and start sharing our “messy”, along with shots of
real life lived in homes. Because I believe that the more honest we are with
others, and real about our imperfections, the less isolated and crazy we feel about
not being picture perfect. Lets embrace our perfectly imperfect lives
together!!

There you have your real life dose for the week! And you can breathe a sigh of relief that you survived spring break!
Did you do anything exciting over spring break? We didn't go anywhere fun but the kids played with friends and took a self defense class. I highly recommend checking out the Urbandale Police Departments RADKids Program if you live in Iowa and have kids ages 5-12. I've attached a link with information http://www.urbandale.org/rad-and-radkids.cfm.
