Welcome to our Home

 

 

 

A lot of people ask us what our house is like in Africa.  We decided to do a picture tour of our home so you can see where we live.  We love to have company, so please come and visit us any time !

 

 

This is our house.  It’s a split level house.  Inside on the first floor we have 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room and a kitchen.  The basement room is Andy’s office.  When you are looking at the house, the front door opens up into the living room.  The windows on the left side of the house are the Master Bedroom and bathroom.  The windows on the right side of the house are in the children’s room.  The kitchen is behind the kid’s room.  The picture on the right is the view we have from our front porch.

 

 

 

 

Another view from our porch.  The mud house on the right is the little house our guards live in.

When you walk in our front door, you come into our living room.

 

 

 

 

You can see the front door next to our table

Another picture of our living room.  Taken from the kid’s bedroom doorway.

 

 

 

 

Abby and Nathan’s room

Abby loves playing at her “tea party table.”

Master bedroom.  The shoes under the bed make it look messy, but we don’t have closets so we have to keep all our shoes under the bed.

 

We love having a sitting area in our bedroom

 

 

 

 

The bathroom is just to the left of the wardrobe.

The kitchen is on the opposite side of the living room from our bedroom.

 

 

 

 

We don’t have any cabinets, but Andy’s Dad made us these GREAT shelves to store things on.

One more view of the kitchen.  You’ve seen all the main part of the house.  Now we will go outside the kitchen door and see the patio and rooms out back.

 

 

 

 

 

This is the back patio.  This picture was taken from the kitchen door.  The red door you see down on your right is the guest bedroom.

This is a view of the patio from down by the guest bedroom.  The doorway on the left is the guest bathroom.  The door straight ahead is the utility room.  The kitchen door is on the right just past the white chair.

The guest bathroom is still a work in progress.  We still need to put flooring down and hang towel racks.

Andy’s office is the basement room on the front of the house.  I don’t have any pictures of his office yet.  While we were gone to Dubai, mold took over his office.  So, his office is a total mess right now as we try to get rid of all the mold.  I’ll post pictures of it once he get’s it all back in order again.  This is the only picture I have of his office for the time being.
