Russian Easter.............

Yesterday Russian people celebrated Orthodox Easter. I guess the tradition is the same for all the Christian people to color eggs and bake some tasty Easter cakes for this event, but Russians celebrate Easter later than people in Europe and America. Today I came to the office and noticed yummy things in the kitchen. Our Chief accountant prepared this……………
I thought it looks very nice and tasty, so I decided to share with you.
Don`t be jealous!

Promised picture

Quick note,
Today some friends from Bishkek sent me a picture I missed while posting about Dayana`s birthday. You can see the whole members of my table, we danced Lambada, it`s Brazil dance. I would like to thank the guy who wore a skirt, I think he look just pretty!

Dayana`s birthday party!!!!!!!

I had wonderful weekends. I was invited to the birthday party of my friend’s daughter in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, the babie`s name is Dayana. My friend`s name is Sophia, we studied at the same University but the specialties were different, we took courses of French language together. So 2 years ago she got married and lives now in Bishkek, so little bit of history, she married to a Korean guy, his name is Sasha. They organized everything pretty cool. There were around 130 people. As they explained to me for Korean people it`s very important to celebrate the first birthday, so that’s why there were whole bunch of relatives and friends.

Here they are Sasha, Sophia and Dayana
Baby was scared at the begining, but later on she did a great job!

They prepared a slide show, starting from Dayana`s birth till nowadays, it was pretty exciting.

Dayana, Sophia and me


Good friends

Baby looks like an angel, don`t you think so?

Sophia, Ulan, Asel, Jyldyz and Zhazgul

As you can see from the pictures the table was full of delicious things,
I loved ribs with potato rolls

The most interesting thing for me was that they decided to be usual in organizing this party. They got some dresses from the theater and people from each table got their tasks. For example my table got the task to dance Lambada, it is very popular brazil dance. We got to wear skirts on top of our clothes and had some beads. Unfortunately I couldn’t get a picture of me being on that dress, but some friends of mine promised to send me some, so I could share with you all.

And other people got tasks like to sing like Abba band, Michael Jackson and so on.

Local Star Michael Jackson!!!!! Cool guy, he did a good job being a mega starfrom the USA!

Indian dance, lot`s of fun,

Uzbek famoust band "Yalla"

This couple asked me to take a picture of them, I think they look cute.

Would like to tell you that was not the all info and pictures I would like to share with you,

P.S. Shasha and Sophia thanks for everything, we all really enjoyed the party!!!!!!

It`s a tradition to be at the airport.....

I love airport very much,
You will ask why?
While working for the adoption agency, we used to go to the airport to meet and see of the adoptive parents. It was always interesting to meet new people and hard to say good bye to the people with whom you worked for some period of time.

On Saturday I went to the airport because a friend of mine from Kyrgyzstan flu from Almaty airport to Beijing. His name is Anvar; we studied together at the Slavic University in Bishkek. Now he is going to work for Shanghai Organization of Collaboration. He concluded a contract for 2 years. I was happy to see him in Almaty; we got to spent a few hours until his flight. He was sad because of new challenges in his life and I was keep telling him that it`s good to have new stuff in the life.

Today I heard from him, he arrived ok, and already missing home.
Well the only thing I can wish to him is to take all the adventures on his way and enjoy them.

Anvar, all your friends and family will be waiting for you.
Cheer up!
Life is good!
