So I tried to post this yesterday and it did not work, so I am hoping it works today.  Lori said the girls have been asking her for pictures of their new room.  When they were here with us we talked about their room and they helped us clear out the basement and they understood what we were going to do.  It looks like a completely different basement, they are not going to believe it when they see it.  There are a few finishing touches to do yet, but for the most part it is done !  One of the walls in the room is still blank and we have asked Lena to surprise them and paint something on the wall after she arrives home.  Lena is a great artist and is close with the girls ( and soon to be their aunt ! ), so they are going to be really excited to see it !!!  Also, my Mom and Eric are in Kiev and arrived there safely, they had their SDA appointment today and are taking the train to Kivoy Rig tomorrow evening.
