9 лет спустя! :)

Конечно, за 9 лет много всего нового произошло. Кратко, в 2007 году вернулась из Канады в свой родной Улан-Удэ, работа, церковь, домашки в Вахмистрово, жизнь с Шаной, с Вустерами, с Танькой, покупка дома в Вахмистрово, замужество, рождение сына.. В 2014г, поле очередной пневмонии, диагностировали бронхоэктатическую болезнь, после чего мы стали молиться о перемене места жительства, о смене климата. 15го января 2015г двинулись в Краснодарский край, посмотрели Краснодар, Анапу, Сочи и вернулись в Краснодар. Здесь и остановились и живем по сей день.
Нашли церковь, долго привыкали. Бог очень благ к нам! Столько прошли по Его милости и столько получили, славим и славим нашего Бога!

"back in US, back in US, back in USSR"

This fraze is actually from a song (the Beattles) and I am glad that in reality it is "back in RUS, back in RUS, back in RUSSIA" :).

I arrived to Moscow on May 24th and spent there 4 busy days (3.5). I had an extra luggage I had to get rid of. So I had to sort it out a bit on what I'll need with me and what I can send by post. Despite this luggage sorting we had a good time with Deanna. Though short.

Then I flew into Irkutsk where my uncle met me and took me to the village I grew up in and where lives the majority of my family. The population of the village is about 200 people. I spent there nearly a month. A good way to adjust back to the culture. So Ulan-Ude afterwards seemed as a big city, Toronto or something like that :) with civilization, hi-tech equipped etc. But I had a good time with my family, gardening, helping my Mom repairing the house (remont)...

Now I am in Ulan-Ude. Meeting with my friends, going to the Family meetings, enjoying our short but hot Siberian summer and searching for a job. I live with Shawna and it is such a blessing to live with her! I am thankful to the Lord for everything He gave me here.

I am sorry that I am not faithful in updating this blog. It was mainly for the use while being abroad. But I will try to post some news once in a while. And I apologize for all the mistakes in English :)

God bless!

Trip to Banff, Alberta

Banff

this bridge is for animals to cross highway
Lake Louise

A few pics from my trip to Banff. A city in Alberta on the border with British Columbia province. Right in the middle of Canadians Rockies. Reminded me of Arshan very much. I mean nature.

Excellent service, friendly people.

Tulip Festival

The annual Tulip Festival has begun in Ottawa. We have a beautiful weather these days. More pics to come. It is just the beginning.

Trip to Niagara falls, Toronto (27-29 April)

Sorry for not posting any news. Many things have happened since my last post. Here are a few pics from my recent trip to Niagara Falls and Toronto.

Going home soon!!!!

I am counting days to my return back home!!! I have exactly 5 weeks left. Just 5 weeks! It's been a good time here but as we say in Russian "В гостях хорошо, но дома лучше". Though I will really miss Logan (most of all) but I hope he will come to visit me next summer in Russia :).

"In Siberia it was warmer"

This morning we woke up to this beautiful and a bit shocking view! And it was snowing all day long. Logan didn't mind it at all.
