Christmas Is The Perfect Time To Un-Clutter
Purge Party Christmas Style
Family Holidays Tradition
Out with the old and in with the new. Take the time before the holidays and un-clutter your space!
As you prepare for the holiday season, one thing you might want to consider is another Purge Party. This time, focus on getting rid of at least one bin of items you don't want, need, or use by un-cluttering your space.
For our family, it's a tradition around the first day of Christmas Break to get a giant Rubbermaid Tote and go through the house collecting toys that we no longer use or want. We have to fill one bin and take it to Goodwill before presents start to appear under the tree. We like to have the kids realize that it's always good to share things we don't need, and it's great to keep their bedrooms from getting cluttered. We try and have a place for everything, and if there is no space for new toys, then none will come...
This year, we just moved in September across the country, so I wasn't going to ask the kids to do our tradition since we purged our house of anything not special or essential. My 12 year old, however, asked me if we were going to do the Christmas Clean Out. He said we had to because it's a tradition.
So in the morning, the Tote will come out, then we'll find some things to pass on to other families, and make room for the coming gifts, hopefully minus the clutter. No matter how old you are, you can start this tradition in your home too. Helping those in need, and keeping your life a little more sane, there's no better deal than that!

Life can get cluttered in more ways than one. It all builds up over time from the things we hold on to, the foods we eat, and the stress we carry. That's why it's time for a Purge Party! Taking a moment to clear out the old, unhealthy habits-whether in your kitchen, pantry, or mind-can make a difference in how you feel daily. In this post, we'll focus on refreshing your life by cleaning out your kitchen and pantry, choosing whole, fresh foods over processed ones, and creating healthier habits for both body and mind. Let's get started on this journey to a cleaner, healthier you!
I have already started this blog 3 times this morning, but have been fighting what I know I should write about. While it would be much more convenient for me today to run around like a crazy person and appear busy than it is to be obedient to God, I know I need to stop. You see, today He's calling me to REST and LISTEN.
Sometimes it seems that my day can get derailed before my alarm clock even has the chance to ring. It's easy to try and "help" yourself by cutting corners on your health and well being when it feels like the wheels are coming off. The best thing you can do (for you and those you love) when you are stressed/exhausted is to take some time to care for yourself!
As we wind up Christmas, it's easy to feel run-over by stress. It's time to take up a New Year's Resolution!
