Photos of Our House





















We are uploading photos of our house so that family members can see it, and also so that some prospective renters can have a look at it!

This is the most amazing house for Nampula. The size of it, the amenities (like tile floor and two bathrooms with bathtubs), and the high ceilings and big yard are things that make us really love it. We feel so incredibly blessed to be living in a house like this because most missionaries here have something much smaller, with cement floors and no bathtubs. Why God saw fit to bless us with this place at such a low price we don't know, but we appreciate it a great deal.

You can see that we chose to paint the inside in bright colors. Outside, most things are brown, rusty, dull colors and the brightness of the house is a balm to my soul.

Isn't the child model in these photos gorgeous? He is a nice accessory to our home and can always be heard humming, singing, or chatting to himself. I think he must have musical talent, because he makes up little songs frequently.

The photos are of the front of the house, our large garage (where we can also hang laundry in out of the rain), the dependencia (small shed to store things), chicken house, enormous yard, children's play house, work veranda, screened veranda where we eat all of our meals, kitchen, hallway in center of house, office, guest room, master bedroom, children's bedroom, and main bathroom.
