Living at the Taylor House.....

Many of you have asked how it has been to live with 4 other guys along with my husband. Let me just start off by saying it has been very very interesting.....at times i felt like a mom, a wife, and a younger sister to all of them. Weird I know. I told them their future wives are going to thank me by the time I am done with them. They will be cleaning, cooking, and fix it machines!! Now with all the good/bad times there have been some some pretty funny ones.......

Exhibit A:The Stove Top crisis, Instead of cleaning up after a spill they continue to cook one thing after another, so that the spill is now burned onto the stove top.

-Thanks mom for teaching me the baking soda and water trick to clean it!

Exhibit B: The case of the mysterious Jock Strap: I kid you not, this "thing" made its way around the back porch, the floor of the laundry room, and the living room...and no one would fess up right until they left...i wasn't touching it!
Exhibit C:The Patio Room Frenzy, Poor SVU athletes don't have lockers at the school and so they have been forced to keep their sweaty shoulder pads, helmets,"Jock Straps," and what have you, in their trunks. Now the horrifying smell seeps from the trunk into the rest of the car.....So being the nice woman that I am aloud them to make a locker room out of our patio room that has screens for effective ventilation. This is the cleanest that it has been!!

Now as funny and smelly that things have been there has also been:
Septic tank backage.....
The boys using my wedding, porcelain, serving dishes as cereal bowls...

Seeing a few of them walking around in their whitey tighty's....

Who ate my food?

No you cannot use my $500.00 Kitchen Aid!

Luke and I hiding out in our room while they had dates over....

Also:

A sweet Halloween Party

Helping and willing hands to clean

Very funny and genuine personalities

New Friends

Sweet Music Jams

And the late night runs to dairy queen
