We rented a house the last 7 years and we took care of it like it was our own. Our landlord loved us and we had a great relationship. We just bought a home and close next week! So we're finally moving on to our very own home and I cannot wait.

congratulations on your new home!

I am SO PROUD to see people take pride in their homes especially when it is a rental. The landlord at one of the last rentals that my husband and I lived in returned our deposit and a bonus! Nice work!

You made your space a home for you & your babies. It doesn’t matter that it’s a rental, because it’s a safe place to raise your boys. The fact that you still made it such a beautiful space and treated it as if it was your own, says a lot about the person you are. I wish all the tenants I’ve had were more like you. ♥️

Wow, you are so sweet! Thank you so much for your kind words. You put a smile on my face 😊🥰

Dad deserves a Medal of Honor!! Way to go dad👍

He’s helping and learning at the same time. Never too young to learn new skills.

Where is the double-like button? Kid friendly, cozy and not permanent. Love it.

Love the idea of using tarp instead of landscape cloth. The landscape cloth really doesn't stop weed growth!

I know this is about the yard but I can really appreciate a barefoot family. ☺️🍃

Not me. Only time I’m barefoot is when I step into the shower.

Great lesson here: if you want nice stuff and can’t afford (or don’t want) to pay someone to build, you can do it yourself. I hate people who complain they don’t have nice stuff but don’t want to do anything about it. Great job - I love what you did - keep them coming. Cheers

Why can’t I find a tenant like you 😩😩🙌💯great job

Well done on selling the pavers to the landlords! That makes me happy. You guys did SUCH a wonderful job. I can't believe how different you made it! I'm so impressed.

I grew up in rentals and my mom always made the house feel like our own. Good job, I hope you guys get to buy a place it would turn out amazing!

I have had a plain back yard for the past seven years and you have really motivated me to create a simple space, thanks for the tips

I'm so intimidated by our seemingly unmanageable back yard, but all of these projects look doable for me and made such a big impact. I'm inspired!!!

Take on small projects over time and it won't seem so unmanageable. Do a little every day, even ten minutes worth of weeding or cleaning up will make a huge difference over time. Set a timer on your phone for ten or fifteen minutes and when it's done, either stop or keep going if you're up to it. Not only will it motivate you but it will also give you extra serotonin from touching the dirt. Yes, playing around in dirt (weeding, planting, etc.) gives that boost we all love and need. Being in the sun does too! So that's aj added bonus. Just don't forget your sunscreen! ✌️

You guys are the PERFECT TENANTS!! I,ll bet the owners shed a tear when you left!

Yep, my tenant leave the outdoor tap on and reported defect, I have to pay for $200 plumber call out fee to shut the tap.

Painting the old, rusty chain link fence was brilliant!

Lovely! You guys are the manifestation of the saying "where there's a will there's a way!" Fabulous!

Love the concrete planter idea to be a movable post. Genius!

Your family did a terrific job as first timers. I too did thus in 2001 and the only thing left for the concrete team to do was rear and pour concrete. So, I know how you each rested after this. Kudos❤❤❤!!!

This is THE best and most cost effective yard makeover I've seen. I had to watch it again!

Thank you so much!!

We did this kind of project on our backyard. All clearance items, our land lady (our grandma) was extremely happy!

Both yard makeovers turned out really nice. Your landlords must love you people. 🤭

This is truly a labor of love. I also live in South Florida, and this is just so important to our way of life, however, it is not an easy task. You guys did an awesome job. Everything looks so beautiful. Congrats on a job well done.

I love these type of videos...from nothing to glamorous! Nice job!!!

...the owners should reimburse you guys. That's an addition to the home.

Beautiful transformation!!! I bet you, your husband and boys loved this area❤

Looks so awesome. I remember when you had to move so suddenly. I hope you’re happy in your new home. I enjoy your decorating videos. 😄

I love seeing you all create this family space together. It’s wonderful! Enjoy yourself!❤

As a father who misses years past with the kids when they were lil ones...I LOVE the scenes when your lil one was helping out. So adorable.....memories😢

I absolutely love the transformation. A great labor of love.

How happy is that little boy....seeing his parents peaceful.....so sweet!

You guys did a great job! You totally renovated the whole yard! Looks fabulous!

Great job. It warmed my heart to see Noah helping. What a trouper!

That’s an amazing job. It’s definitely a good thing for the owner because he /she had a complete makeover.

Wow what a transformation!!!

Beautiful, just beautiful.

Stunning! What a transformation! And without spending thousands and thousands of dollars!! So elegant and beautiful! I’m obsessed and so sorry it was so short lived.

How beautiful! ❤

So proud of your boy, look at him helping !!

Muy bonito lo mejor es como edifica a su Familia, un ejemplo de amor a su casa y a la union de su Familia.❤

How lovely. All your hard work really paid off!

I always did that even when I lived in an apartment. I would paint one wall as an accent wall, fix up the kids room and enclosed our patio. The landlord loved it so much he wanted me to leave it as I had redone it when I left.

What a sweet family and great job, too!

You made it beautiful. Hard work pays off!

Wow! beautiful!

Y'all are such hard workers! I am sad that you didn't get to enjoy all of your hard work, but when my husband was watching this and the front yard makeover with me, he said...I really hate it that they are spending so much money on the yard since it is a rent house! We have, however, done a lot of painting and work on places we have rented just because I didn't want to live there unless we did! :) I believe you will have a backyard someday soon for you to enjoy! God will bless you back for all that you did! It's all beautiful! And you have a gift to make everything so pretty working with what you have!

Wow!!! Sooo nice!!!

Wow you guys are awesome! LOVE that the kids helped.

Great job! Looks so clean N cozy!

So cute!

💥Love it! Thanks for sharing a realistic, do-able, functional, relaxing & lovely DIY backyard makeover! Sweet! 💖

What a cute little oasis! Your family did an amazing job working together to make it an inviting place to spend time. Sorry you didn't have it for very long after all your hard work. What a blessing to the new owners. Do you have any outdoor space where you are now? Thank you for sharing today Natalia.
