TOO MANY CLOTHES!

I haven't blogged in quite a while. I have so many posts swimming around in my head, but have not had a second to write them down. Well, truth be known, I probably have had a second, but I have been addicted to Pinterest, and that is a TRUE time-sucker. Anyway, I am going to start trying to blog more. I have so many "resolves" for the new year and one of them is get this house ORGANIZED. I have learned, well maybe I AM LEARNING that less is more, especially when you have three very active kiddos and you homeschool. So, the first thing I am organizing and paring down is the kids clothes. The boys share a closet. Paul's clothes are on the top:



And Zach's are on the bottom. And, yes, that is a purple sparkly tutu in the floor because Molly's clothes tend to end up in the strangest places.



Anyway, as you can see they have way too many clothes. This doesn't even include the clothes that are currently dirty, or the clothes that need to be put away, or the clothes in their chest of drawers (all their jeans, pants and shorts go in the drawers because there is not enough room in their closet. So, my thoughts on what I am cutting down to:
 5 short sleeve shirts
5 long sleeve shirts
3 short sleeve collared shirts
3 long sleeve collared shirts
3 church outfits--they have two suits each and then lots of dress shirts and ties--oh the ties, I have got to get rid of some of their ties--they probably have 50 ties total!
2 pairs of jean
2 pairs of warm-up/basketball pants

 And I think that's it. How does that sound...still too much, too little...tell me what you do.

I also have to think about Molly. She, too, has way too many clothes, but they are so cute I can't bring myself to get rid of them. I will have to work on that!
