Time to start packing!

Honestly, I don't believe it.  In June we broke ground on our new house and finally it's time to get a start on packing.  Looking around my house I realize now that this is not going to be an easy feat.  We have only been here 6 years but with 4 kids, we have certainly accumulated more than our share of "stuff".  I have to get in the mind set of if I don't use it, throw it out.  I most certainly will need to weed through the toys when the kids are at school or nothing will get donated.  Do you every wonder just how you got so much stuff?  Where did it all come from, why did you think you had to have it?  Ugh.  It will be well worth it in the end but getting to the end is going to be a pain in the rear end!
