Yesterday evening Serj and I went to play tennis at a near-by tennis club/resort. I couldn’t believe me eyes when we got there.

Yesterday I took the train from Odessa to Cherkassy to spend a couple of days with my in-laws before heading home.

I made it safely to Ukraine at about 11:30 pm Monday night.

This evening the mission’s conference at GBC Bellingham concluded. Our little Anastasia was not the only baby mk (missionary kid) present.

Tommorrow Christina’s mother, Maria will be going back home to Ukraine. How wonderful it was to have her come half way around the world to watch our children for 3 weeks!

Today we took Maria to Hurricane Ridge on the Olypmic Pennesula.

Noami, Mishael and Noelle were excited to see us again. They were anticipating our return almost as much as Maria,

Aislinn was Anastasia’s nursurey buddy during Field Prep Seminar. She is 6 months older than Anastasia and we even celebrated her first birthday while we were there.
