Тётя Anna

Will's sister has been visiting us for a week now. We're having a wonderful time with her! She arrived in Ukraine at the end of May and has been traveling around by herself. Some of her photos from her trip are here and here. Last Saturday she got to Zaporozhya, and Asya and I went to meet her. Sunday Anna was with us when we celebrated Raia's birthday. Today she's actually with a friend of ours from church. Lena and I have been studying English (and Ukrainian!) together, and she wanted to visit with Anna and practice her English, so Anna went to spend the night. Here's my favorite photo of Anna with her nieces:

P.S. While I was playing around with Google Maps, I made one to show Anna's travels. Take a look to see how far she's gone already and get a little more acquainted with Ukraine!

Phyllis, Has anyone suggested that the flowering tree (white, hanging sort of flowers) may be in the Locust tree family. It looks like a Black locust flower and leaf. Love, Julie
