In the last week, we had two things to celebrate, another great year of my dearest brother’s life and his engagement to a very lovely, kind and giving girl Lilya. For so many years I have prayed to God to choose a girl that He thought would be best for Oleg and He has done just that, he picked him his soul mate. I can’t even discribe how well they compliment one another, I couldn’t have picked a better life companion for my brother. Since I promised him not to write much about it 😉 I will only mention that he proposed in Yosemite on the cliff overlooking the Yosemite village and from the pictures I saw it was breathtaking! She said “Yes” right away without thinking and they celebrated at a local restaurant. Below you will find pictures of the lovely couple, the ring and some family pictures from our celebration last weekend. Enjoy!
p.s. You have probably noticed that I post many pictures of food from our celebrations and you might wonder why. I LOVE food! I love making food, when I am not too busy and I absolutely love to bake. To me my mom is the best chef out there, whether it’s cooking or baking, she makes magic happen. Since you (my readers) could not see it or taste it, I thought I would show it through pictures.
