The living room has been my favorite spot since we moved in 2019. Every morning, I grab my first of many cups of coffee from the kitchen, flip the switch to turn on the gas fireplace, and snuggle up in the corner of my sectional with a cozy blanket and my iPad to read or work my way to level 4,000 of Fishdom. Many days I end up sharing my blanket with my kids and Mia, the cat.

My favorite room in the house is the kids’ living room! It has the Xbox, a fridge for our Gatorades, and a great view!

My favorite room is definitely seasonal. During the long nights of the winter, I like to spend time in the early mornings and evenings in our sunroom. This is where I can spend time reading and studying something new. But as the daylight hours lengthen, my favorite is the sunroom door, my gateway to the outdoors.

The living room. It’s warm, cozy, and has easy flow of space. It’s also comfortable, colorful, and there’s always a blanket to grab. It’s the one place in our house we all will hang out together, and each one of us has a favorite spot. We’ve had many family discussions, played board games, laughed, and cried, and it’s where we end each day.

My favorite room is our outdoor patio. It is the essence of life for me. Sometimes it’s just me on the patio listening to the quietness of nature, and other times it’s roaring with laughter, music, and splashing in the pool while the grill is fired up with something yummy cooking. Even in the dead of winter, the patio is still my favorite place.

Our home gym is my favorite room in our house. In the summer of 2019, we invested in a home gym and it ended up saving us during the 2020 pandemic. We use it everyday and there are no excuses now. Our two older children have embraced it and will work out with their mom on the treadmill, rower, or with kettlebells. I have always dreamed of having a home gym, and I’m happy that my kids are embracing health and fitness!

I glance into my front room every morning and see love. Love grows there as the sun pours through the front windows and shines on our pup, Waylon, in his favorite chair. It grows everyday as friends and family come and go through our front room. It is my favorite room to gather and celebrate and my favorite room to decompress from the day with my other half.

My favorite room in the Governor’s Mansion is the sun porch because it has a beautiful view of the Capitol and the Missouri River! It’s a place where I can feel relaxed and really take in the beauty of the Show-Me State.
Erin Clark

My favorite room is my office. It can be my place to get away and focus on goals I have set for my business and my family.
Aaron Clark

My favorite room in my current house is my living room. It’s the room where I spend the most time with my family.

Ever since I was a child, it has always been the kitchen. I grew up in a family where I made some great memories in the kitchen, and I continue with my own family, whether we’re baking, eating, or cooking. There is something about food that says love, right? The kitchen is the heart of our house.
