Clean House Season 4 Episode 9 The Menjivar Family

The Menjivar Family is a heartwarming episode of Clean House season 4. The Menjivar family consists of eleven people in a two-story house, and they are in dire need of organization and a clear space. It's a cluttered, party house, with toys, clothes, and junk taking over every bit of the space. The hosts come in and are shocked by the chaos in the living room, with piles of clothes and garbage bags filled with unneeded items. The garage is also completely packed, leaving no room for their cars!

The family is a hardworking, tight-knit group who loves to entertain and throw parties, but it's sadly getting to the point where they're just too overwhelmed with the clutter to continue with their lifestyle. The team quickly gets to work, starting with the living room, where they start to sort through piles of items to determine what can stay and what can go. Some members of the family are clearly more attached to their belongings, but most agreed to let go of the things they don't need. In the end, they get rid of about 80% of their items!

The team also reorganized the kitchen, freeing up counters, giving every member of the family designated drawers, and throwing out expired food. They even set up a little coffee and tea station with a Keurig for the family to enjoy together. The garage was the biggest project - it had to be emptied entirely with their belongings sorted into what they needed, temporarily stored items, and what they could donate or sell. Once that project was complete, they were amazed to see how much space they actually had in there! The family was grateful but in shock that their garage was so empty, and they could park their cars in there.

The team's final project was designing an outdoor entertainment space for the family to enjoy. The family always had friends over for barbeques, but the modest grill they had was not enough for the size of their parties, so the team brought in a new, larger one, along with outdoor lights, plants, and comfortable seating. The result was just like the family - warm and inviting.

Overall, this episode really shows the power of letting go of the items that are weighing us down. The Menjivar family was able to declutter, free up space, and redesign their home to match their priorities. The team did an excellent job of helping the family let go of the things they didn't need and guided them through creating a space that fit their lifestyle. The result is a clean, spacious, and inviting home that can continue hosting their wonderful family and friends.
