“Heather and I have done really well at this list”….come on! Heather has done really well, you leave Oreo tops all over the house. On the mantle, next to the couch, on the TV cabinet, next to the toilet (gross!).

Now that is keepin’ it real, Cali style.

Going back to Cali, Cali, Cali….

Are you afraid of what I will write since YOUR Family stayed at MY house just last week?

1. You and Heather are not a necessity. Please send your children to visit any time. While we love you, those three are amazing.
2. Please leave Heather here when you go home. She did dishes, washed sheets and towels before she left and even folded my clothes in the dryer. My husband doesn’t even do that.
3. I love the idea of Heather cooking. We exchanged recipes and everything she cooks has garlic in it. Being southern, this is exciting change!
4. Do not take pictures of your hosts when they do not want it. THis seems to be especially hard for Carlos. THe man always has a camera in his hand.

Love ya!
Kathy

my foster house rule: fish and company stink after 3 days.

though Carlos, im positive this is not the case with you. you could stay at my house for as long as you want just based on the fact that you have these guidelines.

peace..mike.

I just visited my sister in Dallas, here’s my score:

1. Good
2. Bad
3. Good
4. Good
5. Good
6. Good
7. Good
8. Good
9. Good
10. Bad

8 out of 10 ain’t too shabby.

I offered to make dinner one night while I was there. Chicken Wellington – it was awesome! Toot, toot.

I also made it a point to be nice to their pets: 4 dogs and 2 cats; all living in the house.

I also did not try to convert them to my religion.

An important rule: Always provide a “courtesy flush” if you have to camp in the loo for a while.

we’ll be staying with my dad (in t.x.) during the holidays so i don’t have to follow any rules since it’s family (just kiddin’)…a couple things we try to do when we stay with him: 1. make sure the girls clean up toys and things they get out WAY more often that they do at home and 2. when we use dishes we try to put them in the dishwasher right away and don’t let them pile up (another thing we don’t regularly do at home ) 3. take the sheets off of the beds before we leave and put them in the wash.

p.s.~i have one more rule for people staying with someone (due to an incident that happened to us almost 5 years ago, when i was pregnant with kaia)…
if you’re staying at someone’s house that only has 1 bathroom and the lady that lives in the house is pregnant, DON’T stay in the one-and-only bathroom for almost an hour doing a facial and using up all the T.P. (i’ll also add…especially if the bathroom is right next to the master bedroom and the toilet paper roll is kinda loud when it rolls).
and think of the fact that the pregnant lady who owns the house might have to pee so bad that she’s contemplating going to pee out in the backyard or in a cup or something. sorry, true story.
