Tackle it Tuesday (Great tackle!)
Head on over to www.5minutesformom.com to see what everyone else is tackling this week.
So this could be the best one ever. The words I am about to write are true!
One bright, sunny 102 degree day, our 9 and 12 year old approached me in my office. "Mom, we were wondering if we could give the playroom a makeover. Like really clean everything out and give stuff away to charity." Hmmm, let me think that over boys. (I didn’t want to be too enthusiastic, lest they lose interest.) I asked for some time and thirty seconds later yelled a resounding "Yes!" to already busy boys down the hall.
Here is the before picture:
And two days, a lot of sweat and several trash bags later, here is the after picture. I give you the best tackle ever. 1) Because it’s truly great and 2) Because I didn’t have to do it!
Yes, they are available for hire after The Fresh Prince of BelAir reruns are done for the morning.
Wow, what a great improvement! I’ve been inspired by orgjunkie and went and bought some storage stuff today. Time to tackle the toys and puzzles! 🙂
That looks soooo good! Great job and you can see your floor!
Stop by my tackle it Tuesday where I am tackling an outhouse, not a bathroom, but an outhouse!

Doesn’t even look like the same hoem! Awesome job!
PS
Mines up also.
WOW – what great boys you have!!! How much do you charge?? 😉
WOW! What AWESOME BOYS you have!!! They did a great job!
Great tackle for sure! Well done to your boys. Can they come help my girls do their room? ;o)
Wow, they asked to clean… I thought my ds was feeling ill when he asked if it was OK for him to go to bed early on a school night! I think I’d rush him to the ER if he asked to clear out stuff!!!
Wow..that would be awesome…not having to do it myself..lol! Those boys did a great job!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Wow, great job! And even better that you didn’t have to do it yourself! 🙂
Great job. You really got the job done. 😉
Oh my! You have to love it when that happens!
Looks GREAT! I love it when kids give their old stuff away without screaming or bleeding. We just redid PinkGirl’s room on Sunday. I’ll post photos this week.
How awesome… a Mommy’s dream come true! I LOVE that they volunteered to do that for you! What great kiddos!!
I’d hire them. Great tackles! Give yourself a pat on the back! 🙂

Very fun. I bet that was a great surprise!
