Cleaning carpets for Jenny

Jenny & Trevor have the babies room all set up and ready to go. Now, it just needs a baby!

Jenny asked if we could bring the steam carpet cleaner up and clean the carpets. Unfortunately when it comes to projects, it always takes Gary a lot longer than planned. We got up to their condo in Kirkland, had lunch, cleaned the carpets, went out to dinner and came back and put things away. It took about 8 hours! In the end the upstairs carpets are beautiful and we got a couple rugs downstairs cleaned as well.

The first pass of cleaning really showed how clean we were getting them. What I was surprised was how much more we got out in a second pass. We went through about 1 1/2 gallons of cleaning solution and lots if water. Gary turned the hot water heater all the way up to make sure the water was hot.

Trevor kept a bucket filled with solution so as soon as the tank was filled with dirty water he could empty it and fill the solution tank up. It made the process go a lot faster. he worked his tail off.

Laura's boyfriend TJ lives in a condo outside the back of Jenny & Trevor. Her good friend was married on Sunday and she was in the wedding. She stopped by to say hi and check on her pregnant sister.

I like the picture of Jenny and Laura. Laura looks so tan, and Jenny looks great with her full-term belly.

I love having clean carpets too... (hint, hint)... is Dad bringing his carpet cleaner to Chicago????!!!
