First, thanks for all the support, prayers and good thoughts.
We had court today and I'd like to introduce:
Olena Angela Higgins (The Older) and
Alexandra (Sasha) Cassandra Higgins (The Younger)
The girls picked their middle names from a list we supplied and they decided to keep their first names. The younger one goes by Sasha.
Court went well today and we don't expect any problems with the 10 day wait period since these girls have no family. The town we are in is Alupka which is near Yalta and is quite beautiful.
We may have a lead on an Internet Cafe in Alupka so I'll post more from there.
Moose, will you post two of the pictures I sent you to my photo site. I'll email you with the login info. The pictures I want are the four of us on our first day and the one with the two girls laughing together.
I'll post more pictures when I can get real access.
Love and miss you all,
Chris and Virginia...Proud Parents

The article on the 12 year old girl made it briefly through the grapevines - via those folks really intuned with Ukraine adoptions...scary stuff for the family involved as well as whomever they used to help with the adoption!
