Fog and more sunset in Tallinn

One of the most great aspects of where we live is the sea shoe view that you get wile you drive to and from the city center.  Everyday is a different look and you never know what you going to see.  One afternoon Baltic brought in some magical looking fog.  So grand and thick that I couldn't wait to get home, grab my camera and run to the pier to take photos of this white fluffy mountains rolling into the shore.

More unforgettable sunsets 

Children's day at the Embassy

This was similar to "bring your child to work day".  Children were introduced to what different departments at the Embassy do.  Some offices they got to visit and some came to the conference room and gave small talk and/or activity to do.  One of the fun activities they did was giving an interview to the Embassy's journalists, that was also captured on a video.  The most memorable visit was to the Marines training room where they got to use game guns and practice capturing the "bad guys" on a simulation game:-) Lastly went to the consulars office, got called by name to come to the window, took finger prints and got visitors certificate issued.

Easter in Tallinn 2015

We finally found a church that holds mass in English and decided to go there for Ester mass and an egg hunt for the kids.  It was good to see so many of our English speaking friends also some teachers from our school.  Boys had a blast in the field of plastic eggs and participating in some easter games provided by the church.  Boys were not so impressed with finding only candy inside of eggs. They remember all fancy fillings they get in the States: stickers, small toys and of cause money.  We hope living in Estonia will show and teach or boys to be more humble and less focused on material things. 

We also did some egg painting ourselves at home.  Last year Jurgita spent a few hours in a Ukrainian church learning how to make "Pysanky" egg dying technique.  We ordered all necessary equipment, like bees wax, Kistka (pen that holds wax), different color dies and then had to have eggs, and candle for melting the wax in a Kistka.  We all had so much fun playing with this technique that can't wait till next year to try it again.
