NEW RENTAL HOUSE...Sneak Peak!

Hello All.. well most of you have heard, but we found a Rental House here in Missouri. After much prayer we decided this was the best decision at this point in our lives. Since our Idaho house will not sell anytime soon, but we are thankful for renters (paying 3/4th of the payment), and we can't get back to it (we really tried), we thought this was this next best thing as it truly seems this is where God wants us. Below are some pictures of it..

Living Room

SMALL Kitchen (does not come with a fridge, so we are trying to figure that one out)

The ONE bathroom

Full Basement (I have big plans for this space..office and workshop space)

This house is definitely going to teach us how to organize in more ways then one. It is a three bedrooms, one bath house, 2 car garage, fully fenced yard, and full basement, however the kitchen space is WAY smaller than our apartment. So, I need creative ideas on how to make more space... let me know your ideas! I will put pictures on here again in a couple months after we settle a little... the big move is the end of this month...eek!

Christi - I love the house. How wonderful for you to be able to do this right now. I know you are excited about getting out of apartment life! My suggestion for the kitchen stuff is to use some of your space in the basement. Get some shelves or cabinets to use just for the kitchen - put the extra stock for pantry down there as well as kitchen things that don't get used very often. Keep paper towels, napkins, larger appliances, canned goods, really anything down there. You may get your exercise in for the day treking up and down the stairs, but I think it would work. Good luck! We wish we were there to help out!

We just had some friends get an amazing deal on kitchen appliances on craigslist.org. I'd start there for sure!

Good luck-I'm sure the house will be so much better than the apartment.
