Yeah, yeah, yeah.....I know....it's been forever and a day since I
posted. Well, I sort of have an excuse...actually, I think it's a
pretty good excuse!
Don't exactly know what to say on here, and that's not because there
isn't anything to say at all...on the contrary there is TOO MUCH to
fill all of you in on.
In a nutshell tho...it was the most awesome summer of my life (duh).
Not only was it an amazing wedding and now awesome to have a beautiful
wife, it was also sweet to spend time with so many people that are so
special to me. Everyone in my family made it to the wedding except Paul
and Mel and their little dudes. It's awesome how even tho we hardly
ever get to see each other any more, we are so close. The Lord really
allowed us to pack the short time we all had together with so many
awesome memories. It was so special.
Honeymoon was sweet...I'll try to get some pics up here for y'all. We
went to Oregon and Washington...well, not at the same time...first
Oregon then Washington. It's amazing out there!

It's been quite the adjustment being back in Kyiv. It's definitely tougher on Steffie since she doesn't speak the language yet and is in a place she never lived. But even though I grew up here...it's pretty strange being the ONLY Markeys in Kyiv!!! Seriously, it totally takes some getting used to, finally starting our own family. I would have laughed hard a couple of years ago if you would have told me that I would be the last Markey in Kyiv:) But we both see that the Lord wants us here. Don't exaclty know why yet...but we see him leading us step by step...
Please pray for my entrance exams this October. I'm trying to enter the post-graduate program at the conservatory here. Feel a little overwhelmed by that, especially since there is so much else going on at the same time. I'm leading worship here now, and there are so many things that we want to do. First of all, need to be teaching a couple of people to play drums, since Georgie is gone now. Also working with some of the youth so they can play in worship too...etc. etc. etc....oh! one more thing worth mentioning is that we are praying about recording another album. It's all really awesome and I'm totally excited to be in the middle of all this...just need TIME!!! Oh well...Lord knows.
Ok, all for now...peace to you all

I see that you are giving the ol' XTI a nice workout.
Keep shooting.
