Hi from Moscow. I am sorry I have not posted on here much before now (on our computer in Petro I could not edit this spot). We are now in Moscow and will be heading to Minneapolist tomorrow. So, we will leave here at noon and arrive in Minneapolis at 11 pm but Moscow is 9 hours ahead of us. How long will it take this time for us to travel? I really wish I could be there for the holiday celebration but I will be thinking of all of you and cannot wait to see you all when I return after break. Have a safe and happy holiday! Miss Amy

To help us fund our adoption of a little boy in Russia we are selling bracelets handmade in Peru. These murano beaded bracelets are constructed with Alpaca Silver which is made from copper, iron and zinc and will not rust or tarnish and is as flexible as stainless steel. The cost is $7.00 per bracelet. When ordering please indicate a color preference of pink, amber brown, light blue, royal blue, red, black or clear (as indicated on the final checkout page). 100% of profits (excluding tax) go to fund our adoption costs. By clicking on the "buy it now" you will be redirected to a secure paypal connection. If you saw us at a recent art and craft fair and would like to purchase one of the other pieces of jewelry we were selling please click on the "email me" button above and describe the item and I will get back to you. Thank you very much for your support...your kindness will not be forgotten!
