December 2018

December 2018
In December we were mostly in Thailand for vacation.  We got to spend a week at the beach as a family, then Gramm (Jeremy's mom, Angi) came to visit us and we were at the beach with her for a week and then went to another city to see friends of ours, get some medical treatment and medical supplies and both were able to get in to see a counselor. After that we were in Bangkok for two nights and then headed back home and brought Gramm with us.  She got to spend a little over a week with us in Tashkent. We got some good rest and sweet time as a family.  We were so thankful Jeremy's mom got to be with us and that her trip included Christmas and Charlotte's birthday.



She learned to ride a bike without training wheels!

heading to the beach on a motorbike with a side car

had some extra video time while on vacation, they loved that! These kids go to russian preschool for 4 hours a day, then homeschool for 2 hours in english, try to grab some outside time in there somewhere, and might get a half an hour some days on a device...so they were super happy about the extra screen time with Dad while on vacation while mom rested during Charlotte's nap!!

she loves accessories!

my favorite photo of my mother-in-law caught on camera by one of my kids. She is full of life and laughter in this photo with her granddaughter, true joy and fun, I would frame this one if I could put photos on my walls, but the walls are concrete so I'll settle for posting it here and putting it in a photo book one day!

bingo but different 

our last two nights, on the way home from vacation, were in a very nice serviced apartment in Bangkok, nice nice beds everyone was pleased with :) the rest of vaca, the bed were not so lol soooo we were blessed by these!

Until next year!!
