we have a court date!!!!
Thursday, December 9th at 2pm we will stand in front of a judge and ask permission to adopt two sweet angels! I am not nervous yet, but I'm sure we both will be when that time comes! Today we spent time with the kids again and then went to a mall. We had pizza and Pepsi for lunch then rode the bus back to the apartment. It was our first trip on a bus here and it went pretty well, we almost missed our stop, but at the last minute I recognized the pharmacy that is across the street from our apartment! It snowed Wednesday night, not much, but enough to make the sidewalks and roads really slick. Today, it is melting and everything is a slushy mess, but it isn't too cold. Not much else going on here, we see the kids twice a day and hang out at the apartment watching American TV dubbed in Russian.......fun!! For those of you planning on heading this way, bring movies, LOTS of movies, we only have a few and we are rationing them. Hope everyone is well and thanks for all the thoughts and prayers and comments! They are very much appreciated!

What great news! I'm sure everything will go perfectly. Everyone here is very excited to meet Kenzie and Sawyer. We were at your house today and we actually found Max. He wouldn't let us hold him but we could pet him, so the girls and I gave him lots of TLC. Also, Reese has decided she does not want a cat now that she has seen a litter box...Kevin and I appreciate your help with this matter. You lost a few plants but other than that everything is good. Enjoy your time with the kids today and we look forward to hearing more from you later. Take care.

At last a court date! I am sure you are excited and a little nervous, but I'm sure everything will be fine. They look to be precious kids and very well taken care of. Are they getting to be more comfortable around you and Jon? It has warmed up here the last couple of days. I got all the wood split and stacked. Went to Showlow today to pick up a few things for the journey. Hang in there and enjoy yourselves, keep info and pics coming. Love Mom and Dad.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your court date. I pray it all goes well. Curious as to what part of the city you are in as I know you aren't staying at the same apartment all the other #19'ers did. Are you able to walk to orphanage? Say hello to Sasha from us.
ReplyDeleteTo your mom and dad....I just have to tell you how your posts warm my heart. I've never followed a blog where the parents are such a BIG support. Often times adoption causes division amongst family members...speaking from experience unfortunately. You are getting a couple of very adorable new grandkiddos. Ever since I first saw the little girl on RR she has been "Anna" to me as she looks so much like my friends daughter.
God Bless You ALL.
Yeah! Things are moving right along! Court will go fine, Sasha will prep you and it will be smooth sailing! Praying for you!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! so happy things are moving right along!!! Hugs!

That's awesome! Don't be nervous, just let your genuine love for the children show, and you'll do great. We are all anxious to meet the kids and welcome them into the family. Enjoy your time away and have fun with them as you wait for your court date to arrive.
ReplyDeleteThanks to all that have helped and supported Sam and Jon throughout this journey. They deserve the opportunity to experience the joys of parenthood.
