Tour of Our Home in Jordan

Several family members have been asking to see pictures of our house. Here is a small tour. We live in a four story apartment building. We have the whole bottom floor of our building. It is quite spacious and feels like a house.

When we arrived to our new home in Amman, it had all standard-issue white walls and a lot of empty rooms. Shelley has since decorated the house very nice. We had several rooms painted, bought plants, and arranged the furniture. It now feels like home.

Above is a picture of our living room.

The family room is where we spend most of our time. It has a sliding door that leads out to the side garden.

Off the living room is a hallway that leads to the garage. Shelley put together several black and white pictures to hang on the wall. The stairs lead downstairs to Shelley's craft room.

This is our formal dining room. We do not use it often since we have a table in the kitchen.

The door in the background leads to the lobby of the apartment building.

Shelley made the maid's quarters her craft room.

She likes it because it is entirely her room and out of sight.

The master bedroom. It looks out to the backyard.

Colin is our beach boy. We thought it was appropriate to decorate his room with a beach theme.

Andrew has a very unique room. We arrived to a room that had murals of fish, safari animals, and cars on the walls. We thought it was perfect for Andrew.

Gaby chose the yellow color for her room. She also helped her mom decorate with the vinyl flowers. It is a girly room that we convert to guest room when visitors come over.

We have a small grassy area in the backyard. We placed a swing set and sandbox in the yard to encourage the kids to spent time outside.
