On Saturday, July 11, my mom and bridesmaids threw me a bridal shower. I woke up at 5am that day, filled with excitement and anticipation. I knew it would be a great day, but everything blew me away – it was above and beyond anything I could’ve imagined!
My Maid of Honor, Amy (best friends since [...]

Stas proposed on Christmas Eve as we were exchanging gifts. He handed me a large, heavy box, which contained a smaller box. I opened that box to find two smaller boxes. He pulled [...]

Happy Birthday to ME!

Look who I came home to! Isn’t he the cutest? My very own Birthday Cheburashka!! (it’s from Stas)
When you press his hand, he says a bunch of cute things in Russian
Now my regular Cheburashka won’t be lonely:

I turned 24 today… I’m quickly approaching the quarter-century mark
