File Level Auditing Too much

Good morning all,
I've enabled object level auditing on our 2008 server. My problem is, it is auditing too much. I want to audit 3 or 4 folders, and it is auditing every transaction on every folder. I have gone into the properties of the drive, the share and straight down to each and every other folder (that I don't want to audit) with no success. Nothing but the objects I want to audit have any auditing parameters set, that I can tell. Is there something I'm missing?
I turned on object auditing by going to Start-All Programs-Administrative tools-Local Security Policies. Then going to local policies and tuning on success and failed under object auditing.
I turned on the folders that I wanted by going to the properties of that folder, security tab, advanced, auditing tab, clicking continue, setting up the users that I wanted to audit and what functions I wanted audited.
