Every time we travel… I come home and am ready to halve our possessions. And that’s exactly what happened when we got back from our recent trip to Gatlinburg.

Isn’t it funny how quickly our perspective can shift from a few days away?

I often purge unnecessary items when I’m feeling overwhelmed. (You know that frantic…. That’s it! I can’t clean these walkie talkies and 20 pairs of kids socks up again! It’s gone!)

…. That’s how our “If it’s on the ground it’s out of town” phrase was born🤣

So I was surprised when we unpacked from our trip that I naturally started piling items up to donate.

And then I thought about how much sense that made. The contrast between living out of a backpack and having the best time and then coming home to a house full of things that need me- makes for the perfect intentional motivation to clear things up.

So I thought it’d be fun to share this new habit + everything I’m letting go of- post our recent trip
