As many of you know we recently purchased a home in Rancho Cucamonga, California. We were so excited to go spend Christmas in our very own home, but little did I know what we were in for! We had to fully furnish an empty house, get ready for christmas, and with three tag alongs it was no small job. Luckily we have some wonderful helpers that would come take a few kiddos of our hands so we could get things done. Also my dad came down, who is a contractor, and we started ripping our brand new house apart.
After living in south america for so long and never having carpets, I cant stand the thought of carpet throughout my whole house, so it had to go. We found a great tile that we loved and that was our first project! The boys loved playing with the jack hammer and being grandpas lil helpers.
Cooper was not so much of a help, but he sure wanted to be.
My dad put beautiful moldings and baseboards in throughout the house and really transformed the look of our home. I am so grateful to have a piece of him all through our home, it is so fun.

Some of the extras he did for us!
Window trim!

I never would have thought putting in a retaining wall would be so difficult. We did not finnish everything before we had to go back to Peru, but it was a good start!

WOW! Everything looks so GREAT! I don't even recognize your house anymore! Hope all is well. Miss you guys!
You’re so lucky that your dad’s a contractor so you didn’t have trouble in finding a reliable one anymore. You have such adorable kids too, Danielle! They’re so cute and helped out with the renovation! I look forward to seeing how your new home looks now.

Moving into a new house and getting things set is definitely tiring. But I can see that you were all having a great time doing it especially the three kids. They totally enjoyed manning up for the occasion. Haha! The help from your dad definitely lightened up the load. The house looks great as it is now, but I'm sure it's going to be even more beautiful when you're done. Please update us soon!
