Andrew & Grandma Celebrate Same Birthdates
Well November 5th just came so quickly but both Andrew and Grandma Gloria share their same month and day of births so to both of them a BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! For Grandma Gloria the family members pitched in dollars and got her a new ceiling fan light for their home in White Bear Lake, Minnesota. Sister-in-law Kim put the whole thing together so the rest of us could contribute and for that we are grateful.
Andrew wanted new tennis shoes as he is out-growing just about evrything he has....so as he kept telling us could we please consider a pair of RED Etnies shoes.
So Greg being the WONDERFUL father he is - ordered him a pair as that was the only thing on his birthday list. I probably will never share this with Andrew nor would he even understand but the new shoes look just like the ones that a very famous clown by the name of Emmeit Kelly used to wear when I was a kid.
Marina and Andrew both enjoyed the Halloween cards they recieved from their grandparents, uncles and aunts. This was so overwhelming for them but love the idea of having real family members AND cousins too......a lot different than Ukraine.
Today the newspaper in our town is doing an article on adoption and the children are featured in the upcoming issue complete with pictures in Ukraine as well as after they arrived in Seward. Tonight in observance of National Adoption Awareness Month we attended with the children a special presentation in our city council meeting where the mayor of Seward presented a Seward Procolation for them and they were featured on television here in town. Marina was all a dither over that!
Thanks to you who visit our site and HAPPY THANKSGIVING...from all of us!

Uauuu! they have to feel like two pop starts; in the newspaper, with a special presentation with the mayor of Seward and the television. jajaja
If this newspaper or tv have a link on internet, please tell us and We look it. It will be very funny for us see Maryna talking in english.When she was in Spain she only said in english "hello", "yes" and "my name is..."
