"Get up, Get up, please!"

Those were the words spoken by Taylor and Molly at 2 a.m. Kiev, Ukraine time. After insisting that we were not getting up....we got up. To say that our internal clocks are off is quite the understatement. So, we're calling family and having a good time eating chocolate chip cookies. Thanks Tim and Amy! :)

We will post more details in the next couple of days. We don't trust ourselves to write coherently right now. Our travel was for the most part uneventful which was a tremendous blessing (with the exception of Molly not sleeping on the overnight flight to Munich...some funny stories to go along with that).

We are thrilled to be here and hope to get some rest over the next few days. Our SDA appointment is Wednesday; we'll pick up the last paperwork Thursday afternoon; then we'll ride a train to Odessa Thursday night and arrive early Friday morning. We should meet Artour Friday sometime. Hard to believe!

Thanks to all for the many, many prayers.We are here! Good night...good morning...good afternoon...

Love,
The Marshalls
