Sunday

and we learned the dances. Mostly the dance you described was done by the guys. Women in the church would make costumes for us and flowered hair dressing. You brought back a great memory for me. TY I forgot to add that at one time the Ukranian was part of Russia. You must be very strong as I could not do it.
