Thanks Beck

I am very far behind on blogging, and I need to get this blog a little more upbeat. Stay tuned for many posts coming your way of Cameron doing tons of cool things.
My friend Becky got me a gift card to Barnes and Noble for my birthday. So, I went and spent it, and got some good stuff! I have read Under the Banner of Heaven and I wanted a new copy. I loaned it to my brother-in-law a year ago, and haven't seen it since. So, I got that, a new little "green" journal, a Craft magazine, and....Throw Out FIFTY Things. I had read about this book in this month's issue of Real Simple, and it called to me. I NEED this book. I definitely hate throwing things out, and I read the first chapter, and started cleaning out my kitchen cabinets. Check it out. And, don't judge me, we have some messy cabinets right now, and I don't expect to be done with the project until the end of this weekend. I am going to post a picture of how bad they look right now though.

This is a before shot of my cabinet area. Disgusting I know.

This is an after shot, after about an hours worth of throwing stuff away. Check out my organizational sticky notes on the cabinet shelves.

I will be finishing this project this week, with beautiful after shots of my completed kitchen cabinet clear out of junk 2009. Then I will be moving on to my bedroom. Only Rian, Cameron and Kai (our roomie) will ever see this one though. I will not post pictures of this embarrassing debacle.
