Fun in the Sun


Here are some pictures that I took when we went to the lake recently :) I took most of them with my Nikon, and the rest with my iPhone.


We haven't taken the boat out in 3 yrs, but we finally did again this year!




At the lake!!!

The tube is strapped onto the back of the boat.

Getting the anchor ready.

Dad took a picture of us swimming :)

Taking a long boat ride across the lake!


Will Roger's barn next to his house.





Eating lunch :)


This is a comparison photo of myself. On the right is when I was 9 years old. I've lived 9 more years since then. The pictures look pretty similar actually.

"What's that I see"?

Take a picture of it!


It's a long-horn!


We stopped to swim again.

Nathan climbed those rocks, but I didn't get a picture because I was swimming, (my camera is not waterproof ;)




Another long boat ride!


The sail boats were very beautiful.



Nathan and I tubed (I fell off twice :), and then we went separately.

Nathan had an extremely wild ride :)

But he thought it was very fun!




Right when I got on the tube, and the only clear picture Nathan took of me. :)

Nathan hasn't skied much, but he got up on his first time! 







Riding back to the boat dock.

Coming up to the dock.

Back at the dock.

Another comparison photo. 2008 on the left (7 and 9 yrs. old), and 2017 on the right.

Medicine Park Trip!

My boyfriend and I spent a couple days in Medicine Park, Oklahoma for his birthday in November. It's a cute, old town with a history as the first cobblestone resort town.   There was this cool street with little shops and restaurants A very delicious dinner A lot of neat old stuff from around the world.  The famous Medicine Park duck ;) A very peaceful evening  They had the bridge decorated with pretty lights We drove up Mt. Scott. It was quite the drive and a beautiful view! It was cold and windy, but we had a great time! A happy 24th birthday dessert :) We spontaneously decided to get tattoos at the local tattoo shop! They turned out great! Definitely recommend the Legends Tattoo shop there. What a great time spent with my very best friend!  We both recommend visiting Medicine Park if you ever get the chance!

Moldova in May!

Image
In May, I went to Moldova for a few days with my brother and sister-in-law! View from the top of the hill at the "Candle of Gratitude Monument" in Soroca, Moldova. This is the Dniester river separating Ukraine and Moldova. I took a small bus from Odessa, Ukraine to Chisinau, Moldova. I stayed in this Airbnb with my brother and sister-in-law, Alina  The next morning, we walked around Chisinau. Above is pictured the Nativity Cathedral. We then drove a few hours to Alina's small hometown - Drochia. We stayed with her family for a few days in the house she grew up in.  Her village is so neat and beautiful. It's like going back in time. Some of the delicious food her family made for us. It was great getting to meet and speak Russian with them as well! I was a little out of practice, but they were very kind :) They butchered their pig while we were there, which is a yearly tradition. It provides meat for them year-round. Definitely an interesting process to watch. A beautif...

2020 in Retrospect

Image
2020 - what a year! Started the year off by saying goodbye to Nathan before he moved to MI. I had just returned from Russia, and it was so nice to be back home. I helped Miriam build a snowman and rode horses with Sarah :) Target shopping with Magera, and smiling with fellow pianist, Trisha. In LA over spring break, I got to see Vanessa for the first time since Russia! My last semester at TU was bittersweet. Because of covid, I wouldn't get to have my senior recital. I didn't even know this would be my last orchestra concert. But we made it through our last, very strange semester, and graduated (without a ceremony, sadly).  Nieces birthday parties: Aurora turned one and Amelie turned three! Drinks and dinner with family <3 I went to LA again to visit my sister, and saw my friend in Long Beach too! I babysat my niece Kisstance for the week and it was a lot of fun! President Trump came to Tulsa in June, and some of us went to the rally. It was awesome! In Russia, Emily told me...
