Stars. Lots of 'em



More stars than I've seen for a while.

And quite a different architectural style than I posted yesterday.

The Church of the Transfiguration (17th century), located on the grounds of the Novospassky Monastery (14th century) in historic downtown. Wikipedia tells me that the monastery was fortified in those olden times, and used as a prison and then as a drunk-tank during the Soviet Union, before returning to the Russian Orthodox Church in 1991.

I like the stars. Is shiny.

I know, right?

I'm trying to have a minimum of 4 picture posts a week, so stay tuned!

Sounds good! I like the pictures! I'll keep checking in on you :)

On another note, I can't wait for you to see Madison. She's been doing this crawling thing. Paul and I have agreed that it looks like she's trying to swim...lol! Will you be home for Christmas??

Yea! the 23rd through the 29th. We MUST go to Margaritas. And I must see your babies! I was just looking at pictures of Madison and Lauren and wanted to hang out with them!

Yay!! I will clear my calendar, and tell Paul to clear his, and we WILL go to Margaritas! Paul will do just about anything to go out to eat...hehe! I've been trying to catch up on my blog, but there's just not enough time in the day. And yes, you must see my babies! They're all getting so big :(
