Our camera has arrived. . .

Thanks to my sister, our camera has arrived! Here are some pic's from our flat here at Tyndale House, hopefully this will give you a good sense of our living situation!



Here is a picture of Claire and Julia sitting in our living room watching "Little House on the Prarie" on our computer. They are very thankful that a Tyndale House friends owns the entire series on DVD. You may notice we have a little garden out back where we are able to hang out clothes . . . .


This is our kitchen, Claire is showing off a WONDERFUL blackberry cobbler that we made from blackberries picked down the road. Delicious~~~


This is Jim and my bedroom. Notice the bed. This is a direct answer to 'months' of prayer. We fully expected a double bed (standard size here at Tyndale House) and so knowing that, I prayed everyday that God would let us sleep well here while Jim needed to study. (We have always had a King-size bed, yes we were spoiled!) Several months before we came Tyndale House they 'upgraded' this bed to a British King-size bed. (Which is equivalent to a long American queen-size.) We are very thankful, and yes, we are sleeping well.



Although our flat is only two-bedrooms, right off our bedroom was a large storage closet, crammed full of various things. The warden and his wife cleared it out for us and Andrew was thrilled to move in to HIS own room. He loves it and sleeps very well in his little bed.


Here is the girls room. They are really enjoying being all together and they each think they have the best bed!



Here is another pic of our living room. Sarah is reading to Jim one of her many school books.

I hope you enjoyed the tour of our home, we are sorry that we have taken so long to update this blog!

So good to see how everyone is acclimating to the new "digs." Do you all have British accents yet?

God bless! We miss you.
