Weekend organization

This past weekend was a wet and dreary one so we decided to stay home and get some stuff done around the house. It was a very successful weekend! The first time in a long time I can that.

Here are a few pics of our house organization plus some Halloween decor.

We went shopping Friday night for anything and everything we could find to get junk put away, such as bills and just stuff, I know you all know what I mean.

So we started with the "bill rack" thing, I sure wish I took some before pictures, but here is next to our computer where Tom pays the bills.

We got this organizer at Staples.

We found some clearance tubs at Target and decided to get a bunch of them for our pantry, it's never been this organized! We love it and I love going into it!

Those are the only pictures I got but we organized our spice cabinet, you know all those spices you hardly ever use when you have to buy a certain spice for one recipe, such as ALUM, hello, what the heck is that?? And we have 2 of them! That's just to name a few. We cleaned out and combined a lot of stuff that we had duplicates of. We bought a few turn tables from Bed Bath and Beyond along with a a couple 3 tier shelves, it all worked out perfectly. If you look at the pantry picture above we used a few of them for our can goods.

The other place I organized was under the kitchen sink and in our bathroom, the drawers and under the sinks. All was so messy and it feels so good to go into our drawer and find what I'm looking for without moving everything around.

And all the Halloween stuff is out, we definitely have hit fall, the cold, rainy weather is here. I'm so not looking forward to snow.

The entry way, I didn't get a close up picture of Cooper with is Halloween PJ's on in the trick or treat frame I got, it's so cute!

My new candle "thing", I can't think what it's called, but the picture is above the stairs and the candles are on the ledge going down. It looked so pretty all lit up.

The sofa table all decorated too.

A couple pumpkin candles.

The island in the kitchen. Tom cut me some mums, they are so pretty this time of year.

Sunday night we had Tom and Linda up for supper, we had a pork roast in the crock pot all day and it smelled so so good. 

Linda and Cooper playing.

Grandma fed me sweet potatoes and they were so yummy.

I'm full Grandma!

After looking at the last 2 pictures, these were not taking last night. LOL I have no idea when they were taking but I'm just leaving it. I just noticed he had 2 different outfits on. Oh well, he loves to eat!

This was taken Saturday morning, I think! Cooper is ready to take off, he does not like to be sitting or on his back, this is new way of "sitting". This is how he is when I go to get him in the mornings too. It's so funny watching him on the monitor and just listening to himself grunt until he gets to where he wants to be.
