Out with the Old

I spent yesterday and Sunday night cleaning out our closet and dressers. Let me just say, this was much needed. Our closet and drawers were over-flowing with clothes, shoes, hats, etc. & I haven't even brought my summer clothes up here yet. I left them at my parents' home back in Alabama. Something had to be done about the excessive amount of clothing, so I started sorting through all of it.

Sunday, the fiance woke up from a nap to me asking which of his clothes we could get rid of. haha. I had made several piles of things that he never wears & he allowed me to get rid of most it =) That guy has more khaki shorts than anyone I know. I got rid of about 6 pairs, and he still has a whole drawer full of khaki shorts. I think he has a slight obsession!

I also went through my things. I found lots of tops that I have been holding onto for quite some time but just never wear. I took some of the clothing that were still in good shape to Plato's Closet and the rest went to GoodWill. I got about $75 from Plato's Closet which wasn't as much as I got the last time I took things there, but hey it's better than nothing. AND our closet/dressers look a million times better! Now there's room  for my summer clothes!

These are things that went to GoodWill
