Do you do any of these?
Have any tips for handling house guests?
Will you be having any guests over the next month or so for the holidays?
Let us know if you do :)

no guests this year, back home we did my rules are:
first time your a guest, after that your family
put the dishes in the sink (rinse them first)
have the coffee ready in the pot night before so it only has to be turned on

thats about it..unless they are family, then they can help with the cleanup of everything lol

Like your rules for both, LOL
Kind of nice not to have any house guests though right?
Thanks for letting us know :)

Sounds like the perfect house guest to me Ann,
That's good you don't hover & they clean up after themselves, YaY!
Sounds like you'll be busy keeping up with what's going on when :)
