2 years?!

By Mariya
How time flies! I cannot believe it's been 2 years since I have posted anything on this blog. I really want to be consistent with posting and connect with my favorite girls in sharing special life moments and events. 

I am currently sitting at one of my favorite coffee shops, Anthem, in Puyallup, sipping on my favorite drink (white mocha) and working on this blog. 

I would like to share some big events that have happened since the beginning of this year.

Well, first off, I really want to share some pictures from Vicki's 25th birthday celebration in Lincoln City in December. Vicki rented a beautiful house for a weekend getaway to celebrate her birthday with her close friends. I am so honored to be in her life and am grateful to share this big event in her life. I also made a small video that will be linked below.
January: New year~
6th-Visited Leavenworth with Tanya and Yuriy for a day and had a blast playing in the snow and drinking coffee. 


25th-Our dear Kat's 25th birthday! Celebrated a couple days before at one of our favorite places in Petite Provence. 

February: Favorite month, of course~
20th-Celebrated my 24th birthday and my parents 25th anniversary on a Princess Cruise to Mexico for 5 days. 



March: Beginning of spring~
5th-My beautiful sister Tanya's 23rd birthday. Celebrated Tanya with a trip to Victoria, BC with mama. Stayed right in downtown exploring the beautiful island. 



**Side note, I just noticed that all 4 of our birthday's fall within 4 consecutive months! (Dec-March) So cool. 


April: Bridal shower~
28th-Celebrated our dear Katusha with throwing her a surprise shower at Anna's house. Such a wonderful time spent together with family and church friends. 


May: Wedding~
19th-And just like that, Katya got married on a beautiful, sunny Saturday and off she went on her honeymoon! We had an amazing time with the bridal party celebrating the union of 2 friends. May God bless you two as you learn how to live and glorify God in this new stage in your life. May Rhode Island become your new home and I cannot wait to visit you! 

   

26th-28th-Visited Leavenworth for the Memorial weekend with Tan and Vicki. 

June: Summer finally~
1st-4th-Summer is my absolute favorite season, especially living in the rainy and cloudy state of Washington. Took a great weekend trip with my sister and mama to San Diego. Explored the beaches, ate delicious food, and made a lot of great memories with my ladies.




*** I cannot believe half a year is gone. I am so excited to see what God has in store for me for the future and am excited to enjoy summer right around the corner.

A time to be grateful

By
Ecclesiastes in chapter 3 once said: To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to weep,      And a time to laugh; A time to mourn,      And a time to dance; A time to gain,      And a time to lose; A time to keep,      And a time to throw away; A time to love,      And a time to hate; A time of war,      And a time of peace. I’m very glad that in our country we still celebrate Thanksgiving Day and that God gives us peace.   It seems that the more we live, the more the world will be distracted from the true meaning of this day and become unthankful.   I’m grateful to pause and again reflect on the innumerable blessings and gifts God gives me in my life!   Seeing myself a sinner and the power of God’s work through the Gospel again confirms to me how much my Father loves me.   All praise to...

Praise God for His help in nursing school

I honestly don't know where to start to begin thanking God and the people He sent me along the way as I studied these last two years in the nursing program.  I cannot say enough how blessed and grateful I am for this whole process and chapter in my life wrapping up.  The databases, careplans, research papers, patient presentations, weekly exams, weekly quizzes etc. and through all of them God had led me and provided help.  (Of course, now a new chapter opens as I have to study for my state board exam but that's for another entry).   I am so grateful for the spiritual support and power of prayer from my family and friends.  I am humbled and amazed at how good God is to teach me so much about his creation of the human body-honestly, I think we just scratched the surface of everything all these years studying, there is so much more to be discovered and learned. Overall, Praise God! This is a picture of my class #Nursing Class 118 The program has a tra...

Our dear Katya has finally graduated nursing school! We are so so proud of her and all that she has accomplished! Time really flew by, it feels like just yesterday she was just beginning this journey! God has really blessed her throughout her schooling and it has been amazing to see her grow closer to the Lord through this process. She has been a great example to me as well. Watching her depend on God in every difficult situation and staying strong through prayer has been a great testimony. Kat we love you and can't wait to see what the future has in store for you! ❤ ~Tanya:) Some pictures from yesterday:
