Operation garage

This past weekend, we had an actual weekend at home which is rare these days. When we are home, we like to be productive and Marc likes to do fun projects. So for his project this weekend he decided to re-vamp the garage. It was becoming quite the disaster and starting to feel junky. Because Marc enjoys every hobby/sport known to man, we have lots of "things" that have to be in our garage. He worked so hard and did a fantastic job. Unfortunately, the pics don't do it justice to his mad organizational skills. He basically organized each shelf or space by hobby or subject. It's truly amazing and should be on a tv show! We also need some extra shelf space for baby things since we have absolutely no closet space in our house. Honestly, we have no hall closets, just closets in the bedrooms so it creates quite the challenge for storing things. This will help tremendously in several months.

Created a closet next to the water heater. We will be able to store diapers and what nots here since it will be enclosed. We were able to use some left over tile to make it have flooring (my idea!)

Almost finished! M hard at work and analyzing.

Ta-Da! All cleaned and organized.

I'm so proud and it feels so much better. The next project will be to clean out our walk-in attic space which will be right off the babies room and the closet in the babies room. It's pretty scary in there but we have to do it before it gets sweltering hot. Basically we threw everything in there when we moved and its all the stuff we have no place to store it.
I'm seeing a garage sale in my near future!
Thanks honey for having amazing skills.

Project Closet

Project closet happened a few weeks ago. My great, GREAT friend Rachael came over to help me re-organize my life. She is an awesome organizer and I simply am not. My closet had become so overwhelming, I was desperate for help. She was so wonderful to sacrifice part of her Saturdays to help me.

Here are the BEFORE's:

yikes

It was bad...Really Bad

AFTER!!!

So, So much better now. Look at all of those extra hangers!

Rachael kept telling me "My Glory Days are over." Apparently I had a few outdated things and "smaller" things that I may or may not have been hopeful to wear again. Dang you slower metabolism. 

This was her thank you treat! Funfetti cookies!!! Oh my word these are so yummy. You can buy this cookie mix at target and its fabulous. You can even make double doozies!

Thank you Ra for helping me re-organize! It is so much better getting ready in the mornings. Cuts my time down by at least 10 minutes because I can actually find things. And just for the record, it is still very clean!

Happy Weekend!
