Newish house

We moved into a new house in August closer to the center of Salcaja. We loved living in the pink house in the corn fields, but we wanted to experience more of a Guatemalan community. Since we´ve moved in we have made friends with several of our neighbors, including las gemelas (the twins-below), who´s quinceaƱera we will be attending in December. Here are some pictures of the new place.

Our new address is (yes, another different address... sorry):

Mosiah y Kelly Montoya
Residenciales Bougambilias
3a. Av. y 7a. calle, Casa no. 7, Zona 2
Salcaja, Quetzaltenango 09002
Guatemala, Central America

It's about time the two of you finally posted something! The nueva casa looks awesome. I love the porch area. I can't wait to see it in person over Christmas. Gift suggestions?
