My favorite room

When we designed our house, I specifically wanted a very large "room of requirement" that could handle whatever I needed it to be at any given time.  I have loved it so much.

The other day, I maxed it out.   I had every square inch of counter space covered.   I love snapshots like this because they are so telling about what is going on in my day to day life.

1. Scanning old negatives - Have you ever started a project and then had to go several steps back and complete something else before you can finish the project you started?  I have been working on gathering pictures for a family gallery wall. Some of the pictures I would like to display were taken in the pre-digital age.  I bought a picture/negative scanner and have been scanning not only the pictures I want on the wall, but all of my negatives.  I figured I might as well keep going and scan them all while I'm in the mode.  A few more days and I will be done.

2. Book making supplies/paper cutter for my never-ending book project.

3. Swim towel - Chase took indoor swimming lessons this past month.

4. Black HOA binder - Still on the HOA board, but coming to an end.  Yea!

5. Laundry - That never ends.

6. Basket full of long soccer socks/uniforms that has been taken down and gone through.  Soccer season has begun again and I like to keep all soccer apparel in one spot in my laundry room.  No missing items on game day and the boys know exactly where to look to find their stuff.

7. Easter egg dying kit

8. Piles of Taylor's school work

9. Bennett's swim trunks - Evidence of the boy's weekend in Las Vegas
