We took the bus to church in Dneproprotrosk again. After we had taken a picnic and so we went to the town center and ate our sandwiches made with sausage, cheese, tomatoes (pomadora) and cucumber. We were visited by a number of beggars and gave them some of our food. We started to walk to the bus station and it started POURING rain. We ran the 2 blocks and were drenched even with an umbrella. It was pretty funny and kind of refreshing actually. When we got home Vitaly actually asked to take a shower and so hopefully that will spread to Oleg and we will have clean children. While their hair was wet on the bus they gave each other a fo-hawk (not sure of the spelling) this made us miss Daniel even more. We hope our boys have fun at Encore camp this week.
We came home and made chicken and homemade noodle soup and baked potatoes and played games and looked at pictures etc. The boys seemed really at ease today and teased us and kept unplugging the internet and goofing off. It was fun. We decided to go to Russia after Dave goes home during the 10 day wait. We will visit Moscow and 3 locations in Tyler's mission in Siberia. He called his Mission president and he is excited to see him again. We will also be there the same time as Elder R G Scott and he told Tyler that he would sneak him in the meetings.
I am going to post some more pictures. If a picture paints a thousand words there will be absolutely no question that I am a blabbermouth.
All is well

I thought at first-without reading your post-that you had rushed to get on the bus and had no time to dry your hair!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures of the fohawkes is darling!
Glad you've had a good Sunday. Weird to think your day is winding down as it's one o'clock in the afternoon here.
It's memorial day weekend here-at least you're not having another Ukraine holiday there. Hallelujah!
I don't think I would let anyone take my picture after I'd been soaked - not a good look for me! You all, however, look so good and happy. I am glad you will still have the side trip to Russia while you are there!
ReplyDeleteWe all look forward to reading your daily post. It's so fun to read about your experiences. I remember the rain in Ukraine and how much the skies open up when there is a down pour!
ReplyDeleteThe pics are great. Seeing all of these beautiful kids, we just hope that everyone of them ends up in good hands someday.
You have such a great attitude about everything. Your wet pictures were fun. I wondered what was wrong with you too until I noticed you were wet. How funny. Russia sounds like an adventure. A tour of Russia will be an added bonus for us your blog followers.
