Closet cleaning....

I have been working on reorganizing. I have decided I either have a lot of closets or to much stuff. I started with Our walk in closet. Four hours later I emerged. My sister and niece are usually very excited when they find out that I have been cleaning out my closet. Out with the old in with the new! I then moved on to changing Erik's old bedroom closet and turned it into my "Fall/Winter" closet. By this time, I was told by my daughter if I need another closet for my overflow clothes then I might have to much! Never! I didn't take up the whole closet, some of the closet is set aside for the grand kids blankets/movies/etc...since this closet is now in their play room. Moving on to Aaron's old bedroom closet. It turned into Kevin's overflow closet. It now holds all of his hunting clothes, winter clothes and his dress clothes. Yes, he took the whole closet! Then down to the hall linen closet/medicine closet. Threw out all the old meds and old linens. Turned the exercise closet into my extra bedding/extra towel closet. And ended with the cleaning and reorganizing of the guest room closet. WOW !

Feels great to start getting organized. Kind of spring cleaning without the sunshine of spring...rain. ;0)

Wedding update....

Went wedding dress shopping today down in Tigard and Beaverton. Peep, Penelope, Emory, Zella and I went to quite a few bridal shops and we were successful at the last shop! As Emory pointed out, Peep did not want to go to this bridal shop and she did not want a long dress...well now we know she really wants just the opposite! We found the perfect dress at our last stop of the day! Nicole Mae is going to look BEAUTIFUL!!!

Also, we got the D.J. book for the wedding. I suggested that they play big band music and Peep said no way for some reason! Regardless of what they play, I am sure we will be kicking up our heels. With bells on as my mom would say!
