Real Life is messy in all aspects, especially if you have children. I’m sure you have taken pictures of the messes your children or pet or even YOU have made. What have you done with them? For me, I usually decide to scrap a ‘better’ photo or one that makes life look ‘better’. Not anymore, though. This year I am being brave and more real with my scrapbooking. I am documenting life and all the messes that go along with it.

 

Mommy Just Wants a Shower- I’m sure most Moms can relate to just wanting a shower without the house burning down.

 

 

This is Our Everyday- Two photos from that week that perfectly define our evenings. laughter, noise and utter silliness.

 

 

Real Life is Messy- My toddler is nicknamed the Tornado Toddler for good reason.

 

 

Lastly, this two pager documents all my favorite messes- literally and in terms of just a busy, messy life.

 

 

This quote sums up how I am approaching the mess of every day life. The actual messes, the long hours, the frustrations and the struggles with raising children.

 

 

So do you think you are up for the challenge of Being Real with your Mess? Head over to my challenge to scrap a page that perfectly captures your messy life.
