After we sold our house in August, we moved into a rental house next to my dad's school. It had been vacant for a year and before that was left in not so nice condition! Alex and I didn't even go in the master bathroom for the first two months...until the molding carpet had been ripped out, rotting sub-floor replaced, and tile laid.
With the hardwork of my Dad and Alex (helping when I'm not desperate for someone else to watch the girls!), the rental has come A LONG WAY in five months. Here's a list of improvements:
1.) Garbage disposal repaired (very necessary for toddler food scraps)
2.) New carpet as of today (replacing cat pee carpet!)
3.) New tile in master bath (replacing carpet - YUCK!)
4.) New tile in main bath (also replacing carpet...not a good idea with babies who splash in the tub!)
5.) Two new windows - with three on the way
6.) New light fixtures in main bath & front room as of Saturday
Now the only other major eye sore to go is the carpet in kitchen...yeah...again...YUCK! : )
We are feeling much more at home with all the improvements - thanks Dad!

Pictures please!--Penny
Wow, it's amazing how time flies, it feels like just yesterday you guys were selling your house, I can't believe it's been since August! Keep the updates and pictures coming!
You guys have done a ton of work! Are you thinking about buying this house, or are you looking for a different house still?
It is always fun to make the house nicer for my little granddaughters.
Dad
