Organizing Our Home {Thoughts From Me}

January 10, 2014 by Dana

It’s a new year and our year this year is all about organizing!  I’ve been busy busy busy working on the house, putting things in order.  I have to say, I’m quite enjoying it.

Having a place for things in our home makes a big difference in our day to day.  I enjoy knowing where to place things as they come into my home.  It’s nice to be able to put it where it goes.

The kids are quickly following my lead.  They too enjoy knowing where to put things.  They find having a place for everything is much easier on them than just putting it anywhere they can find.  They enjoy being able to know that something they put away is there the next time they need it.

This week, I’m working on my bedroom and doing several tasks in the kitchen following the routines shown on FlyLady.  By the end of this weekend the bedroom will be done, as much as I’m able to get done until I can purchase some new organizing essentials and furniture.

So that’s what’s going on around in our life right now.  What are you organizing for the new year?

Our 2012 Review {Thoughts From Me}

December 30, 2012 by Dana

2012 has been a busy year for us.  The year brought us joys and sorrows.  Overall, it was one of the best years we could have.

This week in 2011 we discovered we were expecting a new addition to our family.  Jackson Lucas Lee was born in August 2012.  9 months of morning sickness, heartburn, headaches and exhaustion brought to us the sweetest joy we could ask for in one tiny, sweet little boy.

The older kids were thrilled to have a new sibling.  They look forward to helping to raise Jax and loving him, playing with him and sharing in every joy he brings to us.  Their world circles baby brother right now.

School wasn’t nearly as structured as I had wished for us this past year.  Thankfully, we had reviews for the Schoolhouse Crew which kept us going, filling in as we passed through the year.  Many items we stuck with, using almost daily and many others gave us the change we needed to keep us going.  Needless to say, we look forward to another year with the crew as we continue to adjust to having another baby in our home.

This year we upgraded items in our home too.  The kids got new Televisions for Christmas.  We got new living room furniture at tax time. 

We have a new-to-us Tahoe. Most recently we purchased a new washer and dryer, which was much needed with washing 6 peoples clothing.  Baby things had to be purchased.

I must say my favorite purchase this year was my Nikon camera.  I’ve been able to work on my photography business this year and provide memories for my family and friends throughout the year.  Photos that have blessed those I love most.

I can only hope as we head into the new year, that next year will be as good to us as this one has been.  Our lives have been so blessed throughout this past year.  I’m hoping to accomplish much in 2013, all while watching my babies grow even more.  It’s the first time in a long time, I can say I’m actually looking forward to the new year.

Happy New Year to all of you.  I pray you have the best year you can too!

Ringing in the New Year

January 3, 2011 by Dana

2011 is finally here! 

So far it’s a lot like last year.  Nothing spectacular!

I’m bringing in this New Year with a cold.  Stuffy head, watery eyes, cough.  All the joyfulness of a winter bug!  Knock on wood, thus far, none of the kids really have it.  Laycie does have a bit of a cough but I’m hoping it goes away on it’s own.  Winston and Emmalee are healthy as ever right now.  I’m very thankful that they have such strong health.

I’m currently debating starting school back tomorrow or waiting another couple of days until I feel better.  I don’t know if I even have the energy for it all right now.  I suppose all I can do is wait until the morning to decide.

So for now, this short update is all I have.  I sincerely hope everyone else is having a wonderful beginning to 2011!
