Messy House or Family Day???

I find myself asking this question a lot. I feel like while I'm trying to balance my crazy life I constently have to choase a perfect house or to really focus on my family. The majority of the time I chose my family, they are my number one priority.

Sunday's are always our famliy days and this weekend we actually switched days Saturday was our family day which means I didn't get a chance to deep clean like I usually do. So instead of taking a day to clean I continued to spend more time with my family and finish up my project that I working on for a wedding present. I took pictures as I did it and I'll post a d.i.y. post in a little while I need to give the present to my friend first before I reveal it to the world.

In the picture below, You can see the project I'm working on hanging on the wall, scissors on the floor (real safe right? Glad Scout's not crawling yet,) all the babies entertainment, and our coffee table is a complete reck with hardly any space to work. Despite this wreck of a living room I had an awesome day with my little guy while my husband studied for his finals. If it means that I get more time with my familiy then I'll take a messy house 1 day out of the week.



I took this picture because I kept having that same question repeat it's self over and over. This mess was driving me crazy and got me thinking. I see so many women who are doing these beautiful crafts in beautiful spaces and is that really how they live? Is there house really that clean and nice all the time?
