    I remember years ago as a snarky teenager looking at my mom's fridge and thinking "ugh, why does she put all of this CRAP on there??  when I have my own place I'm keeping my fridge doors clean of all that garbage".

    Fast forward a few years and here I am...

    btw- the shiny thing on top of the fridge is a thanksgiving card from my mom... it's a turkey with glitter all over it.  she knew it was "me" and I just can't bring myself to take it down yet! 

    it's soooooo scary that I am turning into my mom.  I even say those weird mother words now like "pocka'book" lol.  things that I thought were "sooo uncool" are now my norm.  God help me!

    :)

    Aww I love that you have the older save the dates and two of your own!  We have pictures of babies up on our fridge, one that is a cousin's first baby and the other was an old neighbor of mine that just had twins this summer!

    @ SugarSweetPink You're brave! I could never post a pic of my fridge. It's 3/4 covered with crap. LOL I don't even bother to clean it off anymore. I think there's STD's from 07 on there and I didn't even live here in 07! haha! 

    Can I ask where that "first Kiss" article is from? FI and I constantly have the Wedding Singer conversation "you know..Church tongue" and we think it's funny to send e/o articles & websites about it. LOL.

    Is that the first kiss article where they tell you should have enough tongue so that people know you have tongue, but not enough so that they know that you wanted them to see the tongue?  hahhaha, GROSS!  Keep it in your mouths, people.

    lol - I am always envious of people who have clean fridges, I don't know how they do it. Ours always has stuff all over it that we don't want to forget.

    haha well the article is from Modern Bride (and yes, it's the "use enough tongue so that people know, but not enough to make it look like you want people to know").  it's actually pretty cute, but I'm sure when the time comes for the big first kiss we'll both be so nervous that we'll forget all of the helpful tips! 

    and the 2 STD's for our own wedding.. there's no logical explanation for that..  one for each of us so we don't forget??? :)

    Ah ha, I have SO MUCH STUFF on my fridge. I don't even know what it is anymore, now that I think about it. It falls off when I open it and I just stick it back on without looking at it.

    Hilarious! At least the crap your your fridge is posted there with some level of organization. Mine always starts out that way, but now it is just nuts! I learned a long time ago that those pretty homes you see in magazines with spotless fridges and kids playing quietly on a white couch are PURE and UTTER fantasy, lol!

    I used to have a fridge covered from top to bottom in pics in the magnetic frames. I miss it. Magnets don't stick to the one we have now:(

    we have a packed fridge too.  My mom was so anti clutter on the fridge, that NOTHING ever got to go up there until my STD, and then it was the only thing allowed.

    I couldn't wait to get married married and buy a bunch of magnets and junk up my refrigerator door!

    My calender takes up most of the space on my fridge.  And I have a lot of pictures on there as well as refrigerator art given to be by my eight year old cousin.

    I think your fridge is pretty organized :) I've seen 1000 times worse!

    I don't have anything on my fridge... except fingerprints, which make me mental. My FI has a white fridge & has crap all over it. The second I arrive for a visit I remove everything off the doors & stash it on the sides! lol he loves clutter, I do not.

    Our fridge is much, much worse. I love fridges cluttered with magnets and interesting bits of paper. They're so cheerful. It seems like every other day, though, one of the magnets falls off and breaks on the floor!

    We had last year's Christmas photocards all over our fridge until a couple of weeks ago- then I cleaned it off so I could start putting this year's new arrivals on there!

    Just looked at my fridge to confirm my guilty suspicion and found:

    4 save the date magnets from other (past) weddings

    4 of OUR save the date magnets (just cuz we like 'em) !!!

    5 baby pictures (friends and relatives)

    3 restaurant magnets

    1 (old) wedding vendor magnet

    1 (expired) coupon

    AHHHHHHH.....I'm THAT person too! 

    P.S. Even after confirming this horrible habit, i did not remove ANYTHING from the fridge!

    Oh Sugar, your fridge is neat and organized compared to ours!  Out of curiosity, though... is there a blue-headed devil on one of those STD's?  If so, what's the story there?!  :o)

    I actually do so intentionally - I love having all sorts of pictures and cards up there to remind us of our family back home.

    Our STD, invites to an upcoming shower and e-party, 4 pictures of our nieces and nephews, and colored pictures from said nieces and nephews. It's so friendly!

    I have an anti-clutter fridge - my mom was the same way - but i do have a magnet board in the office where I can get my magnet on! LOL

    But I do have a secret to share - stainless steel fridges aren't magnetic on the front (they are on the side) so that is why all stainless steel fridges are clutter free!

    well it's a relief that I'm not the only one with "once it goes up, it will never come down" syndrome!!  I had no idea a pic of my fridge would spawn such funny respones, you girls are hilarious!  and to those who say everything on mine is neat, thank you!  I've always been sort of ocd so at least it's noted that there is some organization to my clutter!

    @yorkie, ummm yes that is a devil who is so freezing that he is turning blue lol.  something to do with you-know-what freezing over before anyone expected the couple to get married.  it was for my cousin's wedding.  the STD's were a little cheesy and def not something I would ever use for my own wedding, but she has always danced to the beat of her own whacked out drum (ie, their first dance was to metallica, and they put on a special song at the end of the wedding for her new hubby to headbang to- it was hilarious!)
