Friday on the Homestead

07:30, 2006-Dec-8 .. 3 comments .. Link

Today was an incredibly productive day for me.. well I should say US.. that would be my kids and I. I went upstairs to tackle a closet and that was all I had in my plans.. but I finished up this closet and then opened another closet..

and it just started to roll from there.. At the end of the day all the closets (minus the one done last week) were gone through, the bedrooms were cleaned, the dressers were gone through and bag after bag after bag of outgrown clothing, broken toys and just “STUFF” were removed from the upstairs and I was one happy mama..

… of course I could never have done this on my own.. my kids were all put to work and between all 7 of us that upstairs is looking great tonight.. Woo Hoo..

This has been on my list for awhile now and now next week I can tackle my storage area!! …

Aside from that we got about 4 loads of laundry done and still managed to put dinner on the table on time (Tuna Noodle Casserole and Salad).. Tobin spent the day catching up with things in his shop.. he put a new thermostat in Hannah’s car and did something to his car (to mechanical for me to remember LOL.. )

Right now the kids are watching White Christmas for the 100th time.. that is my all time favorite Christmas movie..

Tomorrow may involve getting our tree.. we will see. Other than that, I am not sure what the day will hold..

That sums up my Friday on my Homestead..

I must tell you that this week I tried your wheat bread recipe for the first time. I printed it out months ago. Of all the breads I've been trying, this one was my family's favorite. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

It's my favourite Christmas movie too! I had the house to myself last Saturday and watched it while drinking gingerbread latte and wrapping presents! A perfect day!
