We're Still Here!

It's been a long time since we updated this blog! After Aaron's parents visited this summer, we took a trip to Hungary for a conference. Lydia loved being with her daycare class while we had conference sessions. Here are some pictures from the short time spent in Budapest. It's a beautiful city! Unfortunately Danielle was sick the one full day we were there, but we still got to see a bit of the city. The first pictures are from the castle hill.



Here's a view of the city from a hill called the Citadel. Aaron is wearing his Hungarian hat made out of a mushroom! Near the bottom of the hill is this church built into a cave.

After we got back from Hungary in August, it was time for Aaron to start getting ready for the school year. He's back to teaching now, and autumn has arrived in St. Petersburg. The leaves are just starting to change color, but it has been very chilly. Today has been unusually warm and sunny (60 Fahrenheit), so Lydia and I had a nice time in the park with some friends this afternoon.
Here's a picture of our family from last Saturday. We went with a group to Pavlovsk, and we had a nice time strolling through the huge wooded park.

And finally, a random quote from Lydia today: "I have armpits and elbows!" (Exclaimed with great excitement and arms up in the air!)
