FFF - Messy Spaces

(ABOVE: Jaden raking up the messy backyard!)
(ABOVE: More raking - we have about 200 trees right behind our back fence ... yeah, lots of leaves!)
(ABOVE: Are we done yet?)
(ABOVE: Jaden and her Polly Pocket Village - this is about as messy as she gets!)
(ABOVE: Jaden playing Polly Pockets - and believeit or not, she even picks it all up when she's done - she plays with these for hours!)
Okay it is that time of the week again! This weeks FFF Theme from Sarah @ http://www.kissthefrog4me.blogspot.com was Messy Spaces/Disorderly Conduct. I admit my OCD behoavior made this week a challenge ... our house just isn't big enough to have clutter and messy spaces and even Jaden dislikes a mess ... so I had to search the archives BIG TIME this week ... but finally I found a few ... Hope you all have a wonderful weekend ... it is supposed to be HOT and HUMID this weekend and more severe storms through next week ... oh and if you are bored ... I posted pictures form Jaden's Kindergarten Graduation and Gymnastics Show ... so hop on over and say HI!

Love ~ The Clark Family ~ Rebekah, Jason, Jaden and Baby#2 TOO!

LOve the yard Picture with the Little Helper!

We have that same swingset for the kids... I put baby swings on it, and took off the slide... (not sure the ladder was that safe for a 2 year old)... Needless to say... I have spent hours pushing kids to sleep... I mean to swing! HAHAHA

Cute! Polly Pockets are so fun! She cleans up when she's done? She needs to come and clean up after me! :) What do you mean your house is too small for clutter? There's always room for clutter! The smallest places in my house are always the most messy. :)

You have a child that does not like messes??? How did you do that?

All those leaves...OMG!!! That looks like so much work.

Jaden is so sweet! The fall pictures remind me that that the time to clean leaves will be here before you know it! Way to go Jaden on graduating and your Gymnastics. I know i'll see you in the Olympics someday:) Have a great weekend!

Hey it's late in the day I know, I didn't forget my fav. blog buddies. Just seems to get busy when the weather is warm.

What a great little helper you have to rake leaves. In a few years you'll have 2 to rake them up--LOL. Hope the pregnancy is gong well. Love your updates.

I saw the Kindergarten pics and the gym ones. Madeline really misses The Little Gym here. They closed due to the owners not being able to have time because of the birth of identical twin girls....they already had boys 3 & 5 years old....of course getting 2 more babies at once was a shock. Anyhow, we loved it there. Even though she takes ballet now, she was saying she missed it too!

The FFF this week was hard for me and this is the first time I posted outside the theme. I guess I just don't get pictures of messiness. I try to clean it up quickly!

It hit 95 degrees here today and calling for a very hot weekend. It is crazy...one day it was cool, breezy and nice and the next it was like someone turned a switch and it was hot and humid. UGH. Ok, I best go. It's late and I am rambling.

Have a great weekend!

Not too messy, but very cute. I am OCD, just like you.

I am looking forward to the day that Savannah plays with something by herself for hours. She will clean it up though if she stays like she is.

Congrats on the graduation. Wasn't kdg the best? I used to teach prek and k before Savannah.

Hope you had a great weekend!
