I am really excited about this summer challenge. Now I walk through my house making mental notes of what goes or stays. I also thought it would be fun, especially for you, if I added some prizes to this challenge. I am going to make it really simple to enter, all you have to do is link up your Itch to Pitch post with Mr. Linky, and you are entered. If you do not have a blog and still want to enter ...

After a few 90 degree days in which my boys were playing outside in flannel lined pants we needed to bring out the shorts! The problem with clothing organization is simple. We have a big family, and each person has a summer and winter wardrobe. Our house does ...
