When my boys were younger and had toys around in our playroom I'd let them put some toys away in their room that they didn't want to have to share with others (since I am ALWAYS the host we typically have lots of families over with kids and my boys didn't always want to share everything they owned with everyone and I wanted them to know it was OK). We often locked their doors to keep everyone downstairs too since many of their cousins loved to wander and explore. ;)Joanne https://www.blogger.com/profile/01212516924342195282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8683468931054211240.post-77140244175125497572017-08-30T23:16:25.798-04:002017-08-30T23:16:25.798-04:00I LOVE this post and everything on it!

I always put away our pets when we have guests over. One of our cats is super friendly to guests (he crawled into one of my friend's purses during bookclub :) so I don't want guests to feel awkward around my pets.PolkaDottyPlacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16251286113250727239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8683468931054211240.post-8769759020026039132017-08-29T12:41:12.480-04:002017-08-29T12:41:12.480-04:00You are so right about it being hosting season!

Although most of them liked dogs, I'm not one to force my pets on people! A tidy up basket is my friend, too.
