Only one week left

WOW!! only one week before we leave. We are still working on my daughter 5th grade graduation's memory books and DVD. She isn't even going to be attending. We will be somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean on our way to Kiev at the same time of her graduation. My oldest daughter is completely packed. Her very small suitcase weighs in at 32 lbs. She is happy that it is less than 50lbs. We have been busy trying to find small-nice gifts for the children and adults we meet. We are taking a lot of wipes and hand sanitizer. We are taking some very small puzzles, matchbox cars, stickers and salt water taffy. We are taking our laptops and some DVD. Hubby has to bring his work laptop. We are SO excited and a little bit scared. We can not wait to see Anastasiya!! We miss her so. Not much time left. Yea!! We Will try to blog while we are in the Ukraine. We are not sure if we will have internet access. Wish us luck!

ONLY ONE MONTH LEFT !!!

Hello everyone,

We can't believe we only have one month before leave. We are very busy packing and unpacking and repacking. Brian has decided that we can only take one very small suitcase each. I think I can fit 3 pairs of socks and two pairs of underwear in mine. He keeps saying that we need to pack light but in the next breath he says but don't forget.... Thus why we are packing and unpacking. I think it is keeping us busy too. The waiting is the hardest part. The kids were going to take their Nintendo DS's but we have no way to charge them. I can't believe Nintendo does not make a charger that works in Ukraine. Well we will be playing a lot of "go fish" on the plane. It should be a very fun adventure. We are all very excited.

Thanks for checking our blog,

We will keep your posted,

Thanks,

Sandee
