I find this week so important that I was tempted to do storage and closets on week 1. If your “hidden places” are organized, the rest of the house follows suit. This makes sense, because ultimately if these areas are decluttered and organized, it usually means everything in your house has a place it belongs. […]
Say the Obvious. A lot. (Parenting Teens)
I’m not going to pretend that I’m an expert at parenting teens, but I’m certainly in the thick of it. Right now I’ve got three teenage daughters. I also work with teens at church, so helping teens is on my mind daily. I’ve been so worried about my teens during the last couple years of […]

Some teens may feel comfortable having you in their room helping, and some may really need that help, but they still may want some […]
Week 9 – Bedroom #3+ {91 Day Declutter Challenge}

Week 8 – Bedroom #2 {91 Day Declutter Challenge}
Personally, I’ve been waiting for this week. My son is 7 and is finally starting to understand a little more about decluttering! I still have my work cut out for me, because he is definitely still in training. I know from experience that kids do so much better in their room without all the clutter. […]
Week 7 – Bathrooms {91 Day Declutter Challenge}
If you’re lucky this week, you don’t store much in your bathrooms and this can be a really easy week. If you do store a lot of stuff in your bathroom, keep reminding yourself how much easier it will be to CLEAN your bathroom without all the stuff in the way! If you have stockpiles […]
Chocolate-Covered Strawberries (Easy and Gluten Free!)
As I’m preparing for a little Galentine’s Day party one of my teen girls is hosting tomorrow, I thought how I should share my simple way to make Chocolate Covered Strawberries. I’ve been seeing postings in my area where chocolate covered strawberries are being sold for $4 each. I don’t begrudge these people making money […]
