About three or four weeks before we traveled, friends of ours hooked us up with The Guest House. It is a house that serves missionary teams, individuals, and pastors. And it also is used for Seminary classes and church on a weekly basis (which we found out after getting here.) I think we are the first adoptive family who has stayed here and we may be the last. ;-)
Anyway, it has been great! We have even gone downstairs to the church service the last three Sundays with the kids. I don't think we would have ventured out to another church while here, but since this one meets right next to our kitchen and it's hard keeping all 7 kids quiet all Sunday morning, we thought we would try!
The kitchen/laundry room is fully equipped and we even fit at the long table that takes up most of the space. :-)
Around the corner from the kitchen is the stairs that lead to our bedrooms and living room
The living room
Master bedroom down the hall
The girls' room
The boys' room
(I took these pics the day we got here so the rooms look really neat!)
The "yard" next to the house
(which is also right next to a road that sounds like Hwy 290 during rush hour at all hours of the night--but it doesn't keep me awake....anymore.)

OH, and they mow that 1/4 acre with weedeaters at 5:30 am--Nash Lawn could open up another crew down here!

We have been very comfortable in this place and thankful to have the room! After considering a few apartments, we feel we could not be in a better place. Many thanks to our friends here in Bogota--Stan and Deb!
Just one more blessing that God gave us to show us He's got this!

Lucky you for having such a wonderful family. The place you are in is just amazing, from the house to the neighbourhood itself.. Beautiful Bogota!
