It's been a busy 3 months in the Schrunk household... We bought a new house & ended up leasing out our old one.
We lived in our last house for seven years. It was love at first sight, we knew it was the one for us. As time went by, our family slowly outgrew it. The office was in the garage, the kids were constantly rearranged when we had overnight visitors and the kitchen was just not big enough for entertaining. We love the neighborhood and our neighbors, the schools are great, we are involved in the community & Nick works a mile from work - so moving out of the area was not an option.
We didn't officially set out to find a new house, but we decided to keep our eyes open. We had a few requirements, and most of them we weren't willing to settle on. We obviously wanted a larger house, in the same neighborhood, pool, larger lot, cul-de-sac, indoor laundry & 3 car garage. Well, this March, we stumbled across a diamond in the rough with a huge lot and a pool. The house was in complete disarray, inside & out. It was a disaster of neglect, but it had everything we wanted, except for the 3 car garage. We saw beyond the ick & I really don't know how we did it. Friends & family were disgusted & thought we were nuts. There were times we thought WE were nuts! I had several mental breakdowns & I hated this house with all my might, but now that we are done & moved in, WE LOVE this house!!!!
I'm posting some before and afters, mind you, we are far from done, but the rest will happen in the months to come...

The boys & Tball
Tyler & Conner at their first Tball game of the season. We won the game (in Tball there is no score keeping, but we did anyway!) and the boys were fantastic!
