28 Days to getting the Foreman house in (better) shape!

Today is the 1st and I am feeling slightly motivated to do something new... well new for me, let me explain. I have a very hard time being consistent for any length of time (I know, you're shocked). February being a short month and the fact that me and the kids are jumping on a plane and heading "home" for a few weeks, (and being inspired by January being organize your house month) I am thinking this is the perfect time to work on my consistency and tackle housework at the same time.
So here we go:

28 Days to getting the Foreman house in (better) shape!

Here is the list of "to do's" for this month

1. Organize the Refrigerator and wash all the shelves and drawers (on top of today's chores of making Emily's smash cake and prepping all food for my Tastefully Simple Freezer meal workshop tomorrow, Phew!).
2. Go through and Organize books on bookshelves donating any books we no longer need.
3. Clean the front entry closet, sort shoes, coats and jackets and pack up any that no longer fit.
4.  Clean underneath the stove and refrigerator.
5. Wash all the doors, door knobs and light switches.

Holy smokes that is a lot of stuff to do but I am excited at the thought of actually getting all of these things done and having it behind me. I am hoping that by posting all this here on my blog it will help keep me accountable and motivated! So be sure to check back on my progress. 

Are you ready!?

Proof that I pulled out the refrigerator and cleaned underneath!

That thing was heavy! Luckily the stove was a lot easier to pull out. I was totally ready to give up on this one because my muscle (Matt) went to bed early and I didn't think I could do it without him but I totally did! Yay! 

Ava helped me clean the garbage can. She thought it was a lot of fun!
