More detail please?

It would seem that details on the current situation are desired. Well, sorry for the lack of such we have just been trying to get ready to go attend our court date, that is THE adoption of our children. So what does this mean? You should see our guest room, or rather the bed. Its piled high with diapers, toys, medicine, clothes, and various other child related items...

We are doing well. Excited, nervous, and the like. Our court date is on the 17th so we will travel on the 13th arriving in Volgograd on the 15th after one night stay in Moscow. It is cold there, the average high temp for Nov in Moscow is 32F. Volgograd is a bit warmer... I don't know the averages but it is somewhere between 32F and 45F.

We really love each of you walking with us. I know we say that a ton, but it is true. We would not be where we are without you. Please continue to lift us up in prayer. Please pray:

Praise
1. We have received our court date

Request:
1. We would have a judge with wisdom, discernment, kindness, strength
2. We would find favor with the judge and prosecutor
3. Our 10 day waiting period would be "waived"
4. We would have a miraculously quiet trip home
