It's the first birthday we've celebrated as a family in Russia. Ian really had a great time and we were happy to see our son turn into a teenager while experiencing another culture...that's a cool thought.

Ian's Birthday
Our Son Ian turned thirteen yesterday. WOW!! We have a teenager. We had a couple friends over and let him choose what he wanted for dinner. He chose fried chicken, Mashed potatoes and gravy, and spinach. We had a nice time. He got a really cool engineer's compass, a decorative knife and a fishing pole. His sister Eve also wrapped some things for him...they were actually things that were his and she's had them in her room for awhile. Eve decorated the front room for his party. She's such a sweet little artistic sister. She actually said to me, "Daddy, I'm actually happy for Ian that it's his birthday. That surprises me because I'm usually mean about it." We had to laugh.
