The couple had previously renovated a tack room, which is a room attached to a stable on their property, and turned it into an apartment for nurses.
With that project completed, Janelle was on the hunt for her next renovation. That's when she noticed her neighbor had a run-down travel trailer in their backyard.
Her neighbor was willing to give away the trailer for free, so Janelle took her up on the offer and got to work transforming it into a liveable space.
Janelle spent about $5,000 and four months renovating the vehicle in her spare time between working and taking care of her two children, Max and Rex.
She recorded her progress on her Instagram page, @nailgun_nelly.
Today, the family rents out the renovated trailer to traveling nurses. When it's not being rented out, they use it for family camping trips.
