What's behind your couch?

I'm always amazed when someone tells me I'm organized or that I'm good at keeping a clutter-free house. The above picture keeps me from getting a big head......this is what I found today behind our front living room couch! I don't know how long that stuff has been there, but the kids have quite a stash hidden away. This reminds me that things are not always what they seem at first glance. The rest of this room is nice and tidy....the "sparse" look. Look a little closer and you'll see the clutter. So what's behind your couch?????

7 But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7 NIV

Behind my couch isn't so bad... UNDER it is a whole other concern :)

I just filled an entire shopping bag full of "stuff/garbage" out my car! Amazing!!!
