Fun Days at Summer Camp

We just can't stop smiling!

...and goofing around!

We had an unbelievably great first day with the kids after four long months! We visited them at their summer camp and they were as happy to see us as we were them! Denis has learned some English and is looking forward to coming home with us soon. Denis, along with many of the other campers put on a show for us the first night! Denis and a couple of his buddies did an awesome breakdance routine. He's very talented! Vika was very excited when she first saw her Papa again and ran into his arms. She has since asked for a doll, a stuffed animal and for Mama to have her ears pierced. She is a real girlie-girl! However, she doesn't want to miss out on fishing with Papa, Myles and Denis either. Today, we went for our medical tests and passed with flying colors. Later, we made the 1.5 hour treck again out into the beautiful Russian countryside to see our children. Forrest "the Americanitz" and four of Denis' friends took on about 10 of the other boys in an "extreme basketball" game. It was FUN! Vika wanted to come home with us again tonight. She tried to sneak into the van, but was busted! It feels great to bond with both of them so well again. We can hardly wait to bring them home with us. But, first the judge must approve. Tomorrow we visit the kids again with the Social Worker present and Wednesday and Thursday we have court. Please keep your prayers coming for a smooth process and favorable decision. Love and miss everyone. For now, good night. P.S. We are unable to post all of the great photos we've taken, but will do so when we return for sure. :)
