May Day Spring Cleaning

So we had the most productive weekend! We started Friday night by FINALLY going to Aldi which is a grocery store out by where Zann works. Mandy and Nathan also get the best stuff there so we finally checked it out and will be back there alot more to cut back on our grocery bill.
Yesterday was soooo rainy we decided to tackle our Spring cleaning. So here's some pictures of what our apartment looks like now!


Zann put together shelves for our storage unit in the basement. We cleaned it out and moved our winter clothes and other stuff we don't need every day down there.
Lovely new shelved built by Zann.

Then it was onto the closets. I love clean closets. I took all our clothes out and spent over 2 hour ironing and organizing. Don't they look beautiful???

Yes, our one closet does not have hanging space.
Thank goodness for wrinkle free shirts because I take up all the hanging space we have!
And we got a new table for our guest room. Now we just need some more picture frames and a lamp.
New entry hall table. Admire the hand painted ostrich egg I got in Jordan...ha!
We are searching for a mirror to put above it.

And looking for some new pictures to put above out couch. But we have new pillows!!
And a nice clean bed!
New rocking chair and table in the "sitting area"

And it was still pouring rain today so I went to school for a little while to tackle some cleaning there. This cabinet will have to wait till the next free time I have.
But I got this one organized.
And 7 boxes of Bridget's files packed up since she won't be teaching grade 2 next year :(. I am sad I will not be on the same team as her but we will still see each other all the time :)

Off to sleep well tonight knowing we got alot done this weekend!
Next job is to finish the Egypt posts! It will be soon but the blog website was being VERY difficult this weekend! So coming soon!
