So, I was doing nothing today, when my husband came to me and asked if I was no longer happy. I told him I was indeed, still happy, but wondered why he was asking. He then informed me that it had been two days since I had updated this blog. Two days! 48 hours! 2880 minutes! Apparently I am falling down on the job. I do have a lot of things to say, just a limited time in which to say them. Since ...
Keeping Your Home a Haven
If you haven't been to Crystal's site, I encourage you to stop by and participate in Making Your Home a Haven Monday. I love this meme, because it always encourages me to take the extra step in making my home a place for people to gather. Last week I worked on several house projects, but at the end of the week I realized I needed a better system to get it all done. I also needed a system to ...
My House!
It has been almost two months since we moved into our new house. Since then, we have had over 20 overnight guests, held two birthday parties, and have become a gathering spot for the neighbors. I love having people over, and I want people to feel welcome to stop by my house anytime, even unannounced. I am so thankful that God provided this bigger house for our family. Last weekend we had a ...

Then I read this article from my friend Kyle and realized I was saving way too much. I decided to tackle our three file boxes. Unfortunately in my excitement I forgot to take many before and after pictures, but I think you will get the idea. I ...
The Organized Garage
The garage is almost done. I decided to post pictures this week because we probably won't finish until next week, and I am really excited about the project. This project took about 6 weeks (we didn't work nonstop) and I think we spent about $300 on all the shelves, hangers, hooks, screws, nails, and other supplies. We were starting from scratch, so if you have supplies laying around your house ...
Conquer the Clutter
I have been so busy Conquering the Clutter, I haven't had time to blog about it. Last week I cleaned out my school cubbies, so the next step was the school bins. These bins hold books, papers, and other resources for homeschooling that we are not currently using. Every once in a while I decide to clean out the bins, but usually I have three or four bins and I never get them all done. This time I ...
