Just Killing Time




The last couple of days have been pretty uneventful. We did take the kids to the bowling alley (complete with 6 lanes and all the smoke you could ever want to inhale)!!! SV and Y loved it, the other 2 kids + Denis just tolerated it. We rode back to the apartment on a public bus (usually, we have had a driver or we have walked). The bus was more like a van and was already full before the 7 of us pushed our way onto it. Of course there was standing room only and at every stop, more people would pile on. If you were at the back of the bus and needed to get off, you would crawl over or under everyone to get your place closest to the door. It was an experience, but not one for the claustrophobic!!!
Yesterday I was a little under the weather (a cold thanks to Denis), so we stayed in all day. It was wonderful to relax.
Sunday seems to be the best day to visit all children at the orphanage since it is the only day with no school. We will head there in a little while. We had brought quite a few games with us that we take to the orphanage, but slowly they are dwindling as one child decides he/she likes it much more than everyone else!!!
We miss all of you, especially in church and in our small group and can't wait to see you all soon!
Roll Tide, despite the outcome of the game. Bobby says War Eagle!!!!!

Wise choice Bobby, with the outcome of the game. Kim, Bunko won't be the same without you Tuesday. We are just so excited about the children coming, wish it was all four. Just keep praying! Have a great week.

Hi Bobby and Kim, I applaud you for cooking such a dinner. The turkey story was interesting. Please give all the children a hug for us and tell them Christina and Anna (Marchuk) Brennan said hello. We have not told Anna about "Y" yet. I miss you Kim. We are eager to hear about Jacob's time in Rochester, too. Let me know if we can do anything for you. Love, Amy

Kim and Bobby,

So, what is going on with the business side of things in Ukraine? Have you gotten a court date? I am so excited to see everytime I see that you have posted. I love hearing what is going on with you.

I know that it couldn't possibly compare to what you are going through....but I feel like I am in my own "ukraine" and can sympathize with your frustrations!

I think I got a shout-out on your comment page! Thanks Amy!

Kim, I miss our lunches! Come home soon!
