Getting Ready...

So the fun has started (do you sense the sarcasm?)!! Cleaning, organizing, decluttering, donating, throwing away, trying to look at our house through the eyes of others. Normally this would be something I enjoy (I know I'm a very sick person and I like this kind of stuff), however...it's a little sad because I know this is the start of our move.

Yesterday Jarrod and I tackled the garage. Anyone who has seen our garage you know what a MESS it was, you couldn't walk in there without risking your life or at least a limb! This is the only place in our house that I never got around to organizing. We moved when I was pregnant and then a newborn...forget the garage! We pulled everything out and made piles in the yard and driveway of "keep, donate, garbage". We had to force ourselves to throw things away but at the end of the day (which I don't have a picture because it was time for Bo to eat dinner) we knew exactly what was staying and what was going. This weekend we will be renting a truck to move everything to a storage unit. I'm sure you are wondering what Bo did all day since we were busy...he did remarkably well in his pack and play outside. I think he was just happy to be outside! I promise to keep the blog updated as much as I can these next few weeks. Today...I am tackling the kitchen, while Jarrod handles a lot of the phone calls and emails that come along with beginning the relocation process!

Having fun on a sunny day of about 70 degrees!

What is going on here?

Ummm, we need to talk those are MY things!!!
