Days 11-13, Another Weekend in Lugansk


Papa and Dasha playing a new form of basketball


There's no hoop so they're improvising


14 year old Alex and Dasha's favorite kitten "Boynia"


The girls had to try on their uniforms because school is starting soon


They all seemed happy except...


Dasha wasn't given new shoes like the other girls for some reason and as you can see, it didn't go over very well



We visited with Dasha twice on Friday and were able to Skype with her grandparents back in Rock Hill.  She enjoyed seeing and hearing Datchee, E and Granny Nan.  It was the first time she met Nancy's husband, Danny. 

The kids all got haircuts between our am and pm visits.  Dasha wasn't too crazy about her hair cut either but she seemed to get over it.  We're visiting her once today (Saturday) and not sure if we can see her on Sunday. 

Our interpreter/adoption facilitator, Alex, is joining us Sunday evening or Monday morning.  Our court date is Monday at 2 pm and Alex will be with us throughout the process.  We fly back to Kyiv (aka Kiev) Monday evening and will return home Wednesday morning as originally planned if we cannot change our flights to Tuesday morning.  We don't anticipate having much to report until we go to court.  We'll try to post about our day in court and return travel plans.  Thanks for your support...we can see light at the end of the tunnel.  Blessings.
