Just want to announce the official addition of our new son: Scott Kirill King We went to court on Thursday and after 1 hour and 15 minutes of our atty. talking and a few questions to us and an hour and a half wait for a verdict - this precious boy is ours!!! Will post more later. We arrived at Frankfort Germany at 6:30 this a.m. to find that ALL flights out of this airport are cancelled due to the volcanic eruptions in Iceland - a new way to end our journey that begin with 8 hours stranded in an SUV at a road block. We hope to be able to leave here 11 Sat. a.m. or at least by Monday at 11a.m. They say this is the biggest air traffic european shutdown since World War II - ha!

    Yeah!!!!!!!! What an awesome God!

    Now you know you had to have some sort of "oh dear" story for the trip home. A plain old uneventful trip home wouldn't have fit with the rest of your story! Ha ha ha

    Yeah again!

    Oh my gosh Kirby and John! We were saying yesterday that if you got to Frankfurt after it closed, Kirby would probably hijack a plane and fly it out of there herself! I cannot believe this. I hope you get to enjoy yourselves in Frankfurt, it beats Karaganda! We are still here and thinking of you, wishing you all the best!
