What do they both have in common?

They are both in Sevastopol and both on the coast of the Black Sea. Few Pics below...we have more stored, just for you Angie!

We also toured a really cool palace on the black sea built by a count about 150 years ago.  We don't have the pics up of it yet.

Thanks so much for all of the prayers. Chad dodged the flu/cold and I am doing much better. I still don't feel great and sound horrible -very frog like- but my fever is gone and so are the aches and chills. Thank you, God!

Also, The dinner was great! No mom on the scene--Thank you Lord! Their family is wonderful. They thanked us profusely for taking the kids. It was obviously hard for them, but they are thankful that the kids now have a chance. It was a good evening. Totally a God thing! When we left my new daughter was walking off arm-in-arm with her (adult) sister and turned around, ran back to me and gave me a huge hug and with tears in her eyes said, "Thank you, Mom!" I'm so glad we did this for them.

We are hoping for their passports tomorrow or the next day. We'll keep you posted. I want to be home by Friday. Chad says it's wishful thinking. I say, God can do anything! Keep praying!

love,

Chad and Wendy
