Temporary Housing in AZ

Tim's company was great to us during this move.  They thought that since we had such a "large" family that we would need a bigger place than just an apartment.  We of course, agreed.  They not only found a house for us but it was a HUGE house in a high falutin gated golf comunity.  It was a little more than 4000 sq. ft. A little overkill but we decided to make the best of it.  I finally remembered to take some pictures just before we left to move to our little rental.  It was a hectic week.  The movers brought our stuff on a Friday and then Tim had to leave for the week to go out of town and I had to take care of getting the last few things from the temp. house, clean it up before we had to be out of the there, continue to get our house unpacked and get the kids back and forth to school along with making sure homework was getting done.  The week prior I had strained my back and neck somehow and was in so much pain.  It was not the best time but definitely memorable and worth recording.  The girls again had to step up and help me out.  Luckily we found out that a guy in our ward is a chiropractor and with in a few weeks I was 100 times better.  It just couldn't have happened at a worse time. 
The following are the pictures of our temp. house.

The entry 
 Looking from the entry into the dining room.  The living room was on the left and the family room and kitchen on the right.

 Master Bedroom
(This pic. doesn't do the size of this room justice.  Let's just say a few running races occured from that window to the doorway where I stood to take the picture.)
 Bathroom
 Shower.  I think we figured it was 6 ft. x 6 ft.
 Office
 Looking from the bedroom down the hall at the entry.  Continued down the hall beyond the entry is the 1/2 bath and then to the right is the hallway to the other bedrooms. 
It was fun staying in such a large place but nothing is the same when you don't have your own things.  Even though we are living in a much smaller house, we love having our own things back.
