a tour of the new crib.

hello! this is the lohs coming to you from 31 the vale, in the lovely suburb of willetton in Perth. :) some of you might have heard and some of you might not have, we've rented this place from a friend who goes by the nickname of brother 'love'. His real name is Bro. Daniel, or Bro. Dan. Ian introduced me to him when i was here on my holiday in 2005. We came over for firewood oven-baked pizzas! yummers. the besttt in Perth. hahaah. that's what i reckon. since then there has been a few occasions that we got to hang out everytime Ian came over to Perth.

the story goes that while we were still looking for a house, bro. dan called me to ask for the rates of housing rent for students. we talked about it and i told him that we haven't gotten a place. and he thought, it'd be good if we took it! so he spoke to bernice, his wife, and she shared the same sentiments. By God's blessing, i believe that all of this is God's divine plan for james and i. Bro dan will be in attached to singapore to work for the next 3-5years. coincidentally, james and i do have 3 years more here! i suppose the whole pt of not being able to get a place was cos God was making us wait to provide us with this 'perfect' house that He has planned for us.

trust me, the space around is so good. though we'd probably hardly enter the other areas. but still, it's better to have it than not.

so sit back relax and slowly browse through the photos!
i hope that you'll could just pray upon this house as you browse through that it may bring blessings to others and God's glory will be shown. :) that this house would be a light house and a place of refuge. filled with peace, joy, laughter, respect, and love.
thank you for taking time off to wanna see what the place looks like,
i know you guys are concern and all, and we know how much we're loved from home.
miss you guys plentiful. trust me, when i say plentiful. you know what that means! :) hee.

lets start from when we step into the house. you see the door on the right, that's the door we come through when we get home.
this is the kitchen and dining area.

if you go straight in pass the dining area, it'd be our study area!

the table on the right is james, the one on the left is mine.

to the left of the tables, on the outside in the garage is : taadaa! the thing. dnt know if you can see the firewood oven. look carefully to spot it!

just before this part, next to the kitchen, would be this:

that's bro.dan's car. and james's is behind it.

ok, so this is the backyard. that's behind the walls of our study area.

there's actually still another side to it, but i didn't bother to take it. too many photos alr.

next to the shed on the other side, there's actually this door.

can yu see it? ok mayb not, but there's a door there. that's the door leading to bro.dan's parents house. meien, whose brodan's sister stays there too! she's like my mentor, cos she mentors all the girl cell-leaders for vibe.

continuation from if we walked in through the kitchen. instead of going straight, turn to the right, that's the living room area with the tv!

where you see james right, that hole on the right is a walkway towards bro.dan's room

but from that walkway if you turn right, it'd be the other dining room and living room. this is the carpeted area. which i doubt james and i will go much to that part of the house, except when we have cell at the living area and when james and the boys use the gym equpiments.
