Happy Thanksgiving
We have so much to be thankful for this year! First on our list is the birth of our second daughter, Keira. In a close second, we are thankful to be working here in Moscow and beyond. Of course, none of this would be possible without the support of our friends and family back home. So..we are also thankful for all the people who have been faithful over the last couple years to sustain us here in Russia.
Most of all, we are thankful to have been given the great gift of true life, a gift that we hope to share with many people here!
We will be having a Thanksgiving party on Sunday with our friends here, but for the rest our family and friends who are celebrating today, happy Thanksgiving to you! We miss and love you all.
Jerky??
Hi Friends,
One of Katrina’s favorite snacks is beef jerky and that is an item that we haven’t really found here in Russia. So today, when I was at the store I saw this package –
Looks like jerky right? Well it is….horse jerky!!! I bought and ate horse jerky! And it tasted just fine, like beef, maybe a little over seasoned and tough. So if anyone wants to try some, send me an email and we can pick up some for you! =)
Thanks for checking out the blog
The Renno’s are here!
Hi Friends!
For the next two weeks we have the priviledge of a visit from Katrina’s family; her parents, sister and one brother! Bill, Sharon, Rachel and Jason all arrived on Thursday. We are so happy and thankful that they have come to visit us. Yesterday was spent relaxing and letting them get adjusted to the time zone. Today we went to Red Square, saw St. Basil’s and went inside, the Kremlin, and we saw the changing of the guards which we have a video of on our youtube channel. Then we walked down to the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, went inside the church and as we were leaving they were ringing the bells up in the bell towers. It sounded really pretty! Afterwards, we ate at a Russian restaurant to let them get a taste of the food here.
It was a fun and tiring day, but we are so happy to have them here!
