Crank The Tunes and Clean!

When I was young, when it was time to clean, my mom would put songs like The Big Chill soundtrack (one of the best soundtracks, in my opinion) on, crank up the volume and we would get the housework done.  To me, that's one of the best ways to get the house clean.  Singing and dancing around makes it feel like you're not really working.  Since Lauryn and Lucas are so little, they love it too!  I'm sure they'll get to the age where singing and dancing around the house with their mom is embarrassing, but for now, we have a lot of fun.  Maybe it's a tradition they'll do with their kids someday :)

Lots To Do

We're getting ready to go camping again this weekend and there is a lot to do today.  I have to go shopping to get some food, pack our clothes and a few odds and ends, I want to give the inside of the camper a good once over and I still have my usual Thursday cleaning to do in the house! 

If I get some time, I need to get out to the garden and do some weeding!  My flowers needs some TLC too!  I think we need to get Lauryn her own set of kids gardening tools because she's always trying to take mine when I need them.  She's a very good helper out there.  As I'm pulling weeds, she's sweeping them up and putting them in a bucket.  Gotta love it!
