does your entry way look like this?

I really do clean the house, but I think it goes something like that saying of shoveling while it's still snowing. Without fail, the boys can destroy all my hard work in ten seconds of arriving home, it might be closer to three seconds. At least I know which way they went.... I just follow the trail of clothes the four year old removed on his way.
I love the way Wendy at the Shabby Nest converted a very small closet in her entry way as seen here: http://shabbynest.blogspot.com/2008/07/wicked-awesome-mud-room.html . My husband tolerates a lot, but would never go for that. We actually have a decent sized closet in the entry way. It is mostly full altough I know that even if it was empty the stuff currently on the floor wouldn't make it in there. I'm sure someday I'll miss this, I think....
