A Tour of My Home

Does anyone besides me like to tour through other people's homes and be shown around?  I enjoy seeing the layout of different houses, and I like learning from other peoples' ideas in how they decorate their homes.  I thought you might like to see the inside of my home as well as the outside, so let me show you around!  "Ninakukaribisha nyumbani mwangu."  (I welcome you to my home.)

First of all, my home on the outside:

Now, as you come through my front door, you are in my living room.

Standing in my living room you are facing my quaint, little kitchen.  I love it, don't you?

 

And directly to your left is our guest bathroom which Seth also uses as it is next door to his room.

Turn right again, and you are in Seth's room.  

We brought his toddler bed with us on the container, as well as our living room couches and our bed.

Now I take you to our room. 

 

And tucked in our room is our bathroom.

Now, let me take you for a walk outside.  Around the back of my house is my washroom that our landlord built on as an addition after we moved in.

In front of our house is our neighbor's garden . . .

 and our driveway that leads down to our storage shed/BJ's office.

BJ built this shed before our container arrived so that we would have a place to put all of the extra things that we shipped over . . . like four years of clothes for Seth! 

Right now, it also doubles as an office for BJ to read and study in.  This is his sanctuary.  He loves the hours he gets to spend in there with his Bible, his God, and his books!

So now you know better where we live.  I love the home that God has given me here in Kenya.  I know we probably won't be here forever; we'll go wherever God leads after language school.  But every day as I clean my little house, I am so thankful for how God provided this beautiful place for us.
