A Clean House = A Happy Family


My husband was gone for the weekend to run in a race with his dad in Mexico. He left Thursday night and got back last night. He ran a half marathon and his dad ran a full marathon. I am always so happy to see my husband when he gets back from a trip, especially if it's more than one night. This time in particular I was wanting him home because there was a mini-earthquake Sunday night (3.1) around 9:30pm and the first thing I thought was that I wished he was home with me. It is kinda scary because you never know if it will keep going or if there will be another one. I am thankful this time was just a couple small bumps and a big sound like thunder.
Since my husband was gone all weekend I wanted to do some fall cleaning, go through some cupboards and organize things. I was pretty excited to have the time and surprise my husband with a super clean house after his long trip. It is not always SUPER messy but it does get cluttered and at times I am really not proud of how it looks. Dishes and laundry gets backed up and things get out of place. I spent all day Saturday and Sunday cleaning and organizing, and doing loads of laundry all day Saturday. Our laundry was kinda backed up and I washed all of our blankets in storage etc. so it took quite a bit of time to get it all done. 
Since I am proud of my hard work I thought I would post a few pictures. It still needs a bit more work here and there, maybe organizing some of the clutter that is still out and decorating it more...but it is a work in progress!
