Ahhhh.....

I'm basking in organizational bliss today. Being childless, I tackled our living room and ended up reorganizing the entire toy system of the house. I should have posted a "before" picture to show the shocking difference, but before we had these tattered nasty unraveling toy boxes that didn't close and the hinges were broken off. With a few assemble-yourself shelving units and baskets, our world of toys are in order...along with the rest of the house. The kids closets and dressers were gone through, books put back on shelves, toys and other small toys contained in baskets, etc. I still have to finish the basement storage portion of the project, but at least the upper two floors are in order...at least until the kids get home. :)

WOW!!! Looks GREAT!!! :) I wish I had a fireplace!

P.S. Thanks for picking up the Colby Ridge popcorn for me! Not sure if it was you or Andy -- but a HUGE thanks is in order. I'd give you guys a big hug for doing it -- so, consider yourselves hugged! :)

Love the new shelves and baskets. That might be a fun new chore now to get everything put back in it's place before lunch / supper, etc. I'm missing you all already and look forward to my turn with the kiddos when we get back. Hope to give you a few more days off before Jude arrives..and after he arrives too!! =)
