http://rollonowyhee.blogspot.com/2013/04/18.html
Our family's adventures living and ranching in Russia. Monday, April 8, 2013. Jasper turned 18 last week. So does that make his parents old or experienced? The company gave us some beef a few weeks ago. Jasper wanted to save some for his birthday. Here he is with his beef birthday dinner and a candle in it. Happy Birthday! 65279;. Posted by Jeffrey and Sariah. Wow, hes all grown up! So is beef rare around there? How fast the days of college and toddlers have flown! April 29, 2013 at 2:25 AM.

Our family's adventures living and ranching in Russia. Thursday, May 16, 2013. Justin likes to work on projects. Here are pictures of some of his finished projects. He has limited tools here, so he is pretty talented to be able to make some of the things he has. Whistles - The second from the right is a slide whistle. Handmade bows - The one on the left is completed. A toilet paper holder - our favorite creation. He saved a spring he thought he might need for something. Posted by Jeffrey and Sariah.

Our family's adventures living and ranching in Russia. Monday, July 30, 2012. Posted by Jeffrey and Sariah. Tuesday, July 24, 2012. Back at the Ranch. We are back in Russia. I thought everyone might like to see where we call home while we are here. Justin took these pictures around the ranch a while ago. Our two houses - Boys are on the right and the girls (and Pa) are on the left. Inside the horse barn. It smells like home. The tack room is to the right. Some of the alley and pens behind the cattle barn.

Roll on Owyhee: August 2012
http://rollonowyhee.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Our family's adventures living and ranching in Russia. Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Potato harvest in the village. Each family in the village has a plot or a cooperative plot just outside the village where they grow some crops. The spuds are dug by hand, horses or they rent a tractor and have them dug. The cooperative farms are remnants of the Soviet collective farms. A very typical scene in the villages. Horse power is still used a lot in the villages. Posted by Jeffrey and Sariah.

Roll on Owyhee: HAPPY Easter
http://rollonowyhee.blogspot.com/2013/03/happy-easter.html
Our family's adventures living and ranching in Russia. Sunday, March 31, 2013. We got creative with the leftover dye. Sage put the eggs in the basket. She wanted it to look like the basket was on grass, so she put it on a green blanket. The weather didn't cooperate on Saturday to do an Easter egg hunt. The sun came out on Sunday and we enjoyed a unique Easter egg hunt in the snow. Justin helping Saylor find eggs in the snow. Does it look like Spring? How far down did that egg go? My hands are freezing.

Roll on Owyhee: Victory Day
http://rollonowyhee.blogspot.com/2013/05/victory-day.html
Our family's adventures living and ranching in Russia. Wednesday, May 22, 2013. May 9th is Victory Day in Russia. It is celebrated to commemorate the Red Army's victory over the Nazi forces. There are big celebrations at Lenin Square in the villages. The square at Mglin had food booths and vendors set up. School children walk to the square in their good school clothes and bring flowers. It is a big holiday here. This is the same Lenin Square we went to on New Year's Eve. You can see Lenin better now.
