How others got to know our engagement

When we came back from Paris to Stockholm, nobody knew that we had been engaged. We went to church and my girlfriend Heleri saw immediately my shining ring. Many people at church had been thought that Raymond are going to engage me at Paris, only I hadn`t thought about that :D

EVERYBODY WERE HAPPY ABOUT US

Engagement in Paris...

29.March Raymond and I flight to Paris. For my it was first time and I was curious to go there. I love Paris- I am sure it is one of my favorite city in Europa!

I like that French people are little arrogant, they don`t wanna speak english because they are not so interested in tourists, guess I, but I thinks it is great! They have wonderful language, great culture, romantic and charismatic land! I love their behaviors!

And then, it was 30.March when Raymond engaged my!

It was real suprise!! I really didn`t know that!!

I was swonderfully happy!!

I have never been so happy, I was as some another planet this day!

I only looked my ring :)

Silja& Raymond`s birthday party 2011!!

On December 11th, 2011 had I and Raymond birthday party! It was really fun!!!
I got 20 year old already on 1st December and Raymond had a week to wait to get 31.
It was Nobel Prize day, so we decided that everybody had to dress up!!

FAMILY

Thanks for everyone! You made our day very special!

Israel

One sunday evening after church decided some people (also Raymond) to go Hillsong (it is very great place, you can google about that) after that we wet to McDonalds and we talked about travelling. 

So everybody thought that we should go to Israel, because on november is usually best time to buy cheap tickets. So next month we packed bags to go Israel!!

We arrived to Tel Aviv on the evening, we rented cars and started to drive to Eilat.
It was crazy night, we were so tired and it was so long distance from Tel Aviv to Eilat, especially long because one woman in our group felt really sick and we had to made many stops, after every 10 min.

But in the end we arrived to Eilat and found our hostel. It wasn`t very nice and Raymond and I decided to slept first night in the car.
Anyway it was 5 a.m alrady so we slept just some hours :S

But in the morning, it was so good and sunny and warm, so it didn't matter not at all that we were tired.

I'm sure that Israel was the place where we fell in love...

We ate a lot of different good food in Israel. Especially hoummus and falafels.... yummi

I really liked local markets in Jerusalem

And lot of lot of different halvas, oh I love them!!!

Eilat was very nice and warm but we stayed there only one day.
When we ride nort goes there colder and colder   :/

We were also in the Dead Sea and IT WAS SO COOL!
It was really so as people had talked that you float on the water!

We were about 10 grown ups and some children and fortunately everybody were christians. We had wonderful time together and we visited many churches and well-known placec in Bible.

10 days after we flyght back to Stockholm... it was best trip I have ever had!

Like these colors...

It was so only in the beginning ;)

It didn`t take so much time when Raymond began to show up interest about me, he was very friendly but we met only on Sundays when we went to church. It was difficult to wait still Sunday...

One evening when I was at home he send text message to me to ask out to east sushi...

I was soooo happy but I said no, I thought it is bettre to make he wait  ;)

How I met Raymond...

I was 2012 September when one woman, Anne from church talked that his son just came back from USA and his coming to church also today. I was very excited to meet with him. I still remember so clearly when he came and what he wear (blue jeans and nice shirt) I really liked him, but I was sure that he have already girfriend because he was quite indifferent about me  :/

Kayaking with my new frienda

One nice sunny day my new friends and I decided to go kayaking. It was first time for my and it was really fun!! We made also a picnic on some small island.

On the evening my hands ached and when I tried to sleep I coldn`t close my eyes, I felt that I`m still kayaking on the sea :D

Going to church

I didn`t have any friends in Stockholm so it was very bad time first 3 months. But I found Estonian Stockholm church and I loved this place!! There are wonderful people, they are full of God`s love!
I made many new friends there and my life went bettre and bettre :) :)

Moving to Stockholm

My parents was little bit scared when I said that I wanna move to Sweden. But fortunately my mother- mother ( grandmother) lived in Stockholm so it wasn`t so difficult  to make them say YES!

I didn`t live with my granny because I found good way to have some money and live in best place, in Östermalm to be as a housekeeper. I lived together with a very nice old couple to help them little bit with a household works and cooking. They were so wonderful people!
