Spring Cleaning: The Kids Aren’t Happy About It

Yesterday the weather was cold, snowy, and windy. We were stuck indoors anyway, so it was time to clean out the kids closets and dressers. Nobody really wanted to do this chore, but it needed to be done.

I worked with the kiddos one at a time, and they tried on every piece of clothing that they owned. It took a bit of time, but we got the job done.

We even cleaned out five bags of outgrown clothing to be donated. Dylan was really excited about it.

I did a few Spring Cleaning tasks around the house. I deep cleaned the dish drainer, and garbage disposal. I still have a lot of Spring cleaning to do, but I think the tasks will have to wait until next week.

Today was going to be “Pick a Park and go”, but it is freezing. It is only 36F out, so I don’t think a day at the park sounds like a good idea. Instead of the outdoor adventure, we are making another batch of homemade ice cream. The kids finished off the mint chocolate chip last night, and I think I’ve got enough supplies left to make a small batch of Vanilla. We made a chocolate cake yesterday, and some homemade vanilla ice cream would be fantastic to top it off.

The kiddos are going a bit stir crazy this afternoon. This has been a funny Spring Break. We have been at home, and keeping warm. I really hope the Spring weather gets here soon. We need to get back outdoors. The kids will be back to school on Monday, and maybe then I’ll get caught back up.
