Prepared to leave...it really happened...
The bags are packed, the house is a mess after a small tornado named Debi blew through, Spencer is all ready to go to his Gran's, all the Santa gifts are wrapped and hidden, the house is full of holiday cheer and we are ready to hit the air running...is that possible...all in three days!! WOW...thanks to you all for your kind wishes and prayers. This is the last post form me for a while. I really hope to get internet in Glazov and Izhevsk this time...I really want to keep our family and friends updated before we head back to Moscow.
Some of the best days of my life lie just up the road and I can't wait to get to them. 'Till were in Russia...
