More Pictures of Our House

Here are more pictures of our house. These are mostly for Mom and Dad. Sorry for everyone else that there are so many! But since Mom and Dad only saw my old house... I thought I better show them as much of this house as I can. But, we don't have internet at our house yet... hopefully tomorrow! :) So, now there are only four pictures, so hopefully more soon!
This is our fridge, ant cupboard and oven. The ant cupboard has bowls of baby powder under the legs to keep the ants from crawling up and into our nice American food! It has worked pretty well so far, but if even a cord or something is touching the cupboard, the ants can get into everything, so we need to be careful! The doorway goes into the living roomish area.

 This is another angle of our kitchen. The table is right in front, with the water pitchers on it. And then all the cupboards and the sink.
 This is the beautiful Lao wood furniture. It's pretty but not too comfy, we're gonna get a comfy sofa soon!
This is looking from the living room area to the dining room/kitchen. The white table to the right is where our stove sits.

I'll have more pictures soon when we have internet.

This weekend we had a team retreat in Pakxe, the city in the south where we have 5 teachers. It was fun to see them again and just to relax and have fun together! We played games, talked, and sang together. It was good! We took a 10 hour night sleeping bus ride down there. The beds back home were a little longer and comfier, so it wasn't so bad!

We have already been having so many more students over to our house! Just for whatever. And it's been great! Last week was 63 degrees and rainy for 3 or 4 days, so it was too cold to be outside and see neighbors, but hopefully now that it's hot again we will see them again! And my friend Jane comes to see me tomorrow!!!!!

  1. Looks nice Christa! Good idea on the ant thing:) I can't stand ants in the summer time! It's funny how 63 degrees is cold for you! That would feel great here:) Hope that you have a good time with Jane!
