Toys for Tots?

Yes, that is my Diet Dr.Pepper on the shelf to get me through this.

It was worth it!

Seriously, way too much, the kids couldn't even play.

No more dragging it out to the living room.  Now they have plenty of space to play.

Remember to get rid of things right away!
This is the last full week before Spring Break, and it's still cold outside, so as part of your Spring Cleaning, why not weed out the Bedroom and/or Toy Room why you won't have so many opinions. The key is to get rid of 1/2! Start by gathering bins or even empty gallon ice cream buckets to sort by categorizing.  Be sure to have a garbage bag close by to throw away broken parts or those McD toys that only got played with on the way home and haven't been touched since. Also, have bins or huge garbage bags for the Getting-Rid-Of pile. The rule here is to get it out of the house before those cute little kidlets come home from school.  Don't let it sit near by, where it might trickle back in. You could donate to the Deseret Industries, or if still in working condition, clean-up and giveaway to Primary Nursery or Preschool.  If you are looking for extra money for Spring/Summer clothing you could also haul to KID TO KID in Provo or Lindon for cash or instore credit, or take pics and sell on your own at KSL.com/classifieds.  Good luck, and remember to reward yourself with a little Hershey Bliss Chocolate!
