Before...

The house that we are moving into at God's Resort required a lot of work. Here are some of the before pictures.


This is the "reading room" we call it that because it has a big built in bookcase. Our plans are to turn half of it into the kids room. With a table and chairs were they can sit and work on homework or just hang out. and the other half will be just a comfy reading area.

This is the kitchen, during the move it was the central location for all of the supplies that we needed to make the house clean and livable. Thanks to Kyle for re-caulking the sink and an amazing thanks to Jaqui who cleaned out the kitchen and liberated it from (i kid you not) at least a hundred dead cockroaches and re-lined all of our cabinets.



This is the first mouse that we caught at the house. I decided not to name it because he passed away the next morning. Hopefully we won't see very many more of these little furry creatures or Katie may get her wish and we may end up getting a cat.







This is Katie hard at work cleaning her new closet. Frankly shes a little scared of it. She has nicknamed it: THE TORTURE CHAMBER. But now that Timmy came over and filled in some of the wholes were mice and cockroaches could come through shes feeling a lot better about it.





















This is Eddie and Emilie Gonzalez. They came over to help. Eddie does a great job of entertaining the kids and Emilie helps out cleaning the carpet in the reading room.
My older sister Erica came by to see if she could help, she brought along her 2month old daughter Ela. Ela was a lot of help. The kids loved her, until she started crying. Thanks for visiting and helping out Erica and Ela.
The gang hanging out while I was sowing the curtains to cover the 21 windows in the house. From left to right we have: Brenda, Sergio, Jaqui, Karen, Starla and Eternity. They are great company, helping out when they can or just keeping us busy answering questions.
