Time for Spring Cleaning

I LOVE spring cleaning. I know summer is coming, and that my house will soon be spotless. I'm a super clean freak. When I spring clean, say the kitchen for instance, EVERYTHING comes out of every drawer and cubbard. Then I wipe it all down, clean and organize what was in the drawers and replace it in the best spot. I super clean the stove and refridgerator, after I pull them away from the wall to clean the floor and behind them....I wipe down walls, and all surfaces, clean curtains, and windows...I could go on and on. I could have the president over when I'm through. Right now I'm doing Olivia's room. Her carpet is getting steam cleaned (we own the cleaner). I like it because little repairs or updates that have been put off, also get finished.
Yesterday Olivia and I worked outside. It was 50 degrees out. Felt great with the massive cold spell we have had. Livy and I pulled out all our dead flowers from the pots, and she mixed up the dirt with her gardening tools she got for Christmas from grandma and grandpa. We also took down Christmas lights, and raked up some leaves. Our front yard looks nice now.

lol! Jacque's statement is so her! We all know how cleaning is one of her favorite hobbies! (NOT!!!). I remember when she told Lilly once that I liked to clean and and Lilly was totally wondering why Mrs. Davis actually enjoyed cleaning! : )

Do you hire out?! : ) I did some spring cleaning on Easter, but my next phase is to do the things you talked about (pulling out the stove and fridge, etc.). Our yard will need some work now that the majority of the snow is gone. It's all brown and ugly right now, so I can't wait until it greens up...
