SPRING CLEANING! It's SO good for the soul!!!

So after our camping trip last weekend we decided we were going to clean out our garage.  It was pretty bad.  We could barely walk through there.  We started working around 1pm when Jackson went down for his nap.


Here's the garage after we moved things into the driveway.  I can't believe all that fit in the garage!  We spent hours going through boxes and throwing out stuff we hadn't seen/used in years.  Phillip put up shelves and hooks to help get things organized.


It got a little trickier to work when Jackson woke up from his nap.  He wanted to "help" which mostly meant playing with bubbles and driving his Lightning McQueen car. 

We didn't finish up till around 9pm that night.  We had A LOT of trash which was all hauled away yesterday:)  So here is the fruit of our labor:)


The new shelves Phillip put up.

So it's very exciting to be able to walk through our garage now!  And now there is actually room for Phillip to start making Jackson's big boy bed:)

  1. That picture of Jackson in the midst of all those storage containers is so sweet! I love seeing your photos, Hannah. It's such a satisfying thing to get things organized. This posting proves you won't have to be nominated for the Hoarding, Buried Alive show. Have you ever watched that? Hugs from me to you .....

  2. I love that you have a tote labeled complete junk! I have lots of totes containing complete junk but just don't have the courage to label them as so...
