Before you get out, take some trash with you!

Hubby and I have a long standing debate. You see it has to do with our pimpin' minivan. It is always.a.mess! It seriously has so many different kinds of snacks, toys and misc things everywhere. Some days depending on the weather it looks like our hall closet has moved in for good. I tell him it isn't my fault. It is the kids. BG will constantly just throw food on the floor when she is done with it. Since the majority of the time the van is my driving vehicle (I know, how sad) he blames me for the messy van. His majority of the time driving vehicle is our new civic. It is so cute, sporty and just fun to drive. He keeps everything in its place. His sunglasses, work badge and sometimes the i-pass seem to be the only regulars in his car. The other weekend when Hubs had strep throat we moved BG carseat to the cool car so her and I could spend the day shopping together. What do you know, we come back and I think I did so good in the "clean" car. Nope, BG managed to throw graham crackers all over the backseat when I wasn't looking (because, duh, I was driving of course). So yep, because my kids seem to go wherever I go, I seem to take a messy car with me.
Hubs told me this weekend I need to take it in to have the van detailed. So I am taking bets...how long do you think it will last? My guess is we won't even get out of the parking lot before a sippy cup is thrown.

Hubby and I have this "fight" all the time.
He thinks my van is a mess all the time, which it is quite often, I'm not going to lie.
But I'd like to see how clean his vehicle would be if he ran four kids around to run errands and go to lessons and games. Yeah, not too clean.

I get in trouble on an almost daily basis for how messy the minivan is. He just doesn't get that we seem to LIVE there. I try very hard to take garbage out when I go, but the crayons, toys, books, etc. seem to just gather trash on top of them.

10 minutes, tops!

Hubby gave me a hard time about all of the snack foods on the floor. I vacuumed, and you know what...the car is still a mess. I give up!

oh honey I HEAR YOU!

My hubby gripes about "my" van too, however, he had the kids in "his" car one weekend and finally admitted that he NOW knows how "my" van gets the way it does.

thankyouverymuch.

You sound like me and my husband about our car. And our living room. And our bathroom. Sigh. We are pigs.

If it is anything like washing the floor and steam cleaning the carpets, I give it six and a half minutes. Tops.
