That's totally how I live my life and run my house. At this time, we don't have much by way of decor, but as you can see the house is spotless and minimal...just how I like it.

Asher's roomHow is it possible? How can I have two kids and a husband who refuses to throw anything out and still maintain a minimalist household? Jealous? Want to know my secret? It's fantastic...and oh so creative. Well actually it's simply that we bought a house that has a walk-in closet in EVERY ROOM. So there you have it, my house looks fantastic but holds more than a few dirty little secrets.

Clearing out the closet clutter is clearly on my "to-do" list this year. I'm already working on the playroom closet, which didn't make this list because it's almost completely cleaned out. I can't help but think that if all of this stuff has been sitting in boxes since we moved from Oklahoma, almost a year ago, do we really need any of it? Can't I just load all this stuff up and take it to Goodwill for them to sort out? It's tempting, but I'm afraid Elijah would never forgive me and a week after I took everything out Asher would be looking for that one picture I drew that has that guy with the swords on it fighting that other guy with two heads...from kindergarten...remember? Where is it? Where??? Ugh.
